Race Village

Race Village Services

The Cape to Cape Race Village is located at the finish line of each stage and will contain everything you need post ride each day including food, cold beers, self-service bike wash and the Bike Dr mechanics.

You can just relax, soak up the atmosphere, refuel and hang out with fellow riders.

The daily awards will also be held at the finish line each day – so you don’t have to go too far to collect your leaders jersey.

Mechanical Support

BikeDr. will be providing mechanical support for riders at the start and end of each stage for a donation. While BikeDr. will have spare parts with them (available on a user pays basis), riders need to ensure they are self-sufficient and have with them:

Spare tube
Tyre levers
Multi tool
Pump and/or CO2
Quicklink
Spare hanger and Fiberfix emergency spoke/spare proprietary spokes.

Proceeds go to Dismantles spearhead program, BikeRescue.

BikeRescue is a dynamic youth development program that uses hands-on skill-building to engage and mentor young people in need of support. BikeRescue builds knowledge, social skills, confidence and teamwork through various mechanical and mentoring activities. During BikeRescue, participants fully strip and rebuild two bikes each. The first is donated to charity, which earns them the second one to customise and keep for themselves. During each session, BikeRescue mentors work alongside participants while exploring their mental health, hobbies, passions, and vocational aspirations. We help them to identify their barriers, figure out how to tackle their challenges, and provide support so they can reach their potential.
