Toeriste by Ohrigstad het hul verkyk aan die pragtige reliëfstuk wat mnr. Pieter Krügel in opdrag van mnr. Arno Strydom (eienaar van die Oasis Besigheidskompleks in Ohrigstad) gemaak het. Dit is heeltemal uit sement uitgebou en daarna geskilder. Dit is 12m lank en sowat 2.5m hoog. Dit het meer as twee maande geduur om hierdie pragtige werk te voltooi. Dit reliëfwerk beeld die stigting van Ohrigstad uit en die rustige toneel spreek boekdele van die Voortrekkers se lewe. Toeriste het gereeld stilgestaan en kyk hoe hy werk by Oasis en was baie beïndruk daardeur. Hulle was vol komplimente. Pieter is tans besig om die by die ingang van die Voortrekker Begraafplaas ook ’n reliëfwerk te maak en van die oorspronklike Voortrekkergrafte word ook gerestoureer vir bewaring. Verskeie boere en besigheidsmense het die werk by die Begraafplaas gefinansier. Hierdie werke is betyds vir die 16de Desember se Geloftefeesvieringe. ~ Michelle Boshoff

Samancor ECM - ABET Graduation Ceremony SAMANCOR Eastern Chrome Mines recently held a graduation ceremony to hand over certificates to employees who sacrificed their time in order to upgrade their academic standard through ABET. This opportunity proves to many employees that they can shine regardless of all the challenges and obstacles that they face from time to time. The graduation ceremony was attended by Management representatives, NUM and representatives from our service provider, Media Works’ Jessie Matjila, who on behalf of Media Works gave the learners an inspirational poem, and she also encouraged the learners to continue to attend until they achieve what they want. The HR Manager, Pieter Brits, was very specific in his speech, and encouraged learners to take advantage of ABET training that the company is offering to them. He appealed to the graduates to fulfil their role of an ABET ambassador and pass on the message to fellow employees. He also reiterated that Samancor is striving to achieve a more productive workforce through ABET training. The Programme Director for the event, Ms. Gladys Dube, urged learners and all employees who do not have the minimum required standard of education, to enrol for ABET training so that they can be marketable and economically active in the job market. One of the top learners Baagile Phore, had a chance to voice his opinion and encouraged his fellow trainees to hold on and continue to attend ABET training, as it is too early for them to quit until they achieve ABET level 4. He acknowledged that it is not easy due to work challenges, but we must all persevere. “Quitters never win and winners never quit….”
DIE Highlands Panorama Nuus sal geen advertensies dra wat vuurwerke bemark nie, en ondersteun die gedagte dat vuurwerke verban behoort te word, selfs die 11 toegelate dae (o.a. Guy Fawkes-, Divali- en nuwejaarsdag) is wat ons betref té veel. Volgens munisipale regulasies moet daar spesiaal toestemming verkry word om vuurwerke af te vuur, en behalwe vir nuwejaar, mag dit slegs tussen 19:00 en 22:00 gedoen word. DIT is al weer daardie tyd van die jaar Niemand mag vuurwerke afvuur in die wat troeteldiere vreesbevange n a b y h e i d v a n d i e r e ( i n g e s l u i t wegkruip terwyl ‘fuifende pretmakers’ troeteldiere in private huise) nie. hul lewens met vuurwerke vergal! Niemand onder 18j a a r m a g vuurwerke hanteer ( i n g e s l u i t aansteek) nie. wanneer ’n vuurwerkvertoning aangebied word, moet dit onder die beheer van kundiges en die SAPD gedoen word.

Foto wys monteerpunt met los drade. Inlas:Ruit wat met windbuks of gasgeweer stukkend geskiet is TYDENS die afgelope naweek is ’n sekerheidskamera by R&P Paneelkloppers gesteel. In ’n ander voorval is een van die besigheid se ruite met ’n windbuks of gasgeweer stukkend geskiet. Mnr Roelf Castelyn, eienaar van R&P is briesend oor veral die gesteelde kamera. Hy daag die persoon wat die kamera geneem het uit om hom persoonlik te kom sien en met hom te gesels oor die aangeleentheid.

Nikita is Miss Teen Queen World SA LOCAL beauty Miss Nikita Paulik is proof that hard work does pay off. She won Miss Teen Queen World SA 2014 this past weekend. She will represent SA during August 2014 at the International final event of Little King & Queen World 2014, next to the Black Sea Coast in Bourgas. The National Director Little Teen Queen World SA 2014 Mrs Amanda Kriel said: “Nikita was the natural choice and she stood out with her superb stage presence, eye contact and self confidence. She was the total package. Her talent item as spokes model stole the show.” Nikita is an ambassador for Feed a Child and gave a presentation about this organisation. Well known designer from Lydenburg, Mrs Ronell Joubert (Designer Models) made all her outfits and was Nikita's modelling coach. Nikita's mother was in tears when she said how proud she is of her daughter. “She is very humble about everything she achieved and as a mother I cannot be more proud of her,” said Mrs Hannelie Paulik. Nikita will be in grade 12 next year at Lydenburg High School. She has won numerous pageants and titles in the past like Miss Teen Queen of the Universe 2011 and gold, silver and bronze medals at the SA Performing Arts Championships, to name but a few. This is a local beauty who deserves our support as she has put in all the hard work to make her dreams come true.

M
yself', sê ek vir myself, 'Ruk jou reg'. Moenie dat ledigheid se oorkussing jou kop sag laat ontspan nie. Maar hoe gemaak as jy niks wil doen nie. Ek het hope planne die afgelope naweek gehad vir my tyd. Ja, ek was futloos. Maar met die luiheid wat ek seker geheim moet hou, het ek genoeg tyd gehad om te besin oor my jaar. Verskoon my as dit bietjie filosofies raak. Alles kan nie met blommetjies en vlinders omring word nie. En ek sien dit so: Mense is fassinerende wesens. Ek hou daarvan om ons as legkaarte voor te stel. Soos ’n legkaart het ons baie verskillende stukke wat moet inmekaar pas om ’n geheelbeeld te vorm. As jy dele van die legkaart wegvat is die prentjie nie volledig nie.

Op my legkaart is ’n hoë tienverdieping glasgebou. Dit simboliseer sterkte, mag en vreesloosheid. Om die gebou is groot vangnette vasgemaak sodat dit die gemors kan afkeer wat op my pad kom. My glasverdieping wys ook dat ek kans sien vir baie. Want glas is seker die stof wat die vinnigste kan breek. Ek besef dus dat enige iets kan verkeerd gaan, sonder dat ek voorbereid was daarop. As jy op die boonste verdieping staan is daar ’n klein stukkie groen en blou, so groot soos jou handpalm. Met ’n verkyker sien jy dis eintlik ’n swembad en ’n stukkie groen gras met ’n palmboom. Ek sit op ’n reuse sonstoel, teug aan mineraal water en geurige seekos is op ’n tafeltjie langs my uitgepak. Die laaste stuk legkaart is ’n gesprekkiesblokkie (’n gewone speechbubble). In daardie blokkie skryf jy vir jouself ’n motiveringsboodskap. Myne sê: ‘Myself', sê tog vir die mense van Hoorhiersô-land dat hulle moet skouer aan die wiel sit. As hulle nou hierdie kakofonie klaar ontsyfer moet hulle aangaan met die werk en nie meer so lui wees nie.’ Oor ’n paar dae is ek weer gesond en moet ek in elk geval weer my take voltooi. Ons het die hele Kersvakansie om legkaart te bou. Ons kan intussen roomys eet en al die afskeids-partytjies bywoon. Daardeur weet ons ten minste dit is somer en dat Kersfees amper hier is. Daarvoor het ons nie ’n legkaart nodig nie.
Dankie aan skool Gelukkige ouer van Lydenburg skryf: Hiermee wil ek graag Lydenburg Akademie vir CVO bedank vir julle puik skool en goeie opvoeding wat julle vir ons kinders gee. Ek was baie skepties in die begin van die jaar om my kind daar in te skryf. Nou aan die einde van die jaar kan ek net sê dat ek glad nie spyt is nie. Die skool se waardes, norme en standaarde, kortom die opvoedingsisteem is fantasties! Kinders se beginsels word vasgelê in die laerskool. Ek verneem ook dat kinders wat van die skool na die Hoërskool gaan, baie goed presteer en vir niemand hoef terug te staan nie. Hetsy sport en / of akademie. Dit maak my opgewonde oor die skool. Oor die sport aanbiedinge, staan julle ook niks terug nie. My kind het die geleentheid gekry om aan elke sport en kultuuraktiwiteit deel te neem, waar hy nie net `n nommer was nie. Selfs met die bulletjie rugby het hy dit baie geniet, al was die span bietjie klein, het hy `n groot geleentheid gehad. Vir die personeel wil ek ook net bedank, vir julle harde werk en die persoonlike aandag wat julle vir my kind gegee het. Ek het van elke klein probleem wat my kind betref geweet, en daar is ook aandag daaraan geskenk. Hou so aan met die goeie werk, julle gaan nog die spog Laerskool van die dorp word.

ADVENTURER Jolandie Rust, 29, has become the first woman to ride solo on a motorcycle around Africa. She passed through Durban on her way to Cape Agulhas two weeks ago. Forty thousand kilometres, 27 countries and 20 months later, Jolandie Rust has become the first woman in the world to travel around Africa, solo, on a motorcycle. The adventurer and her BMW F650GS Dakar completed the final stretch of their journey at Cape Agulhas, last Sunday. The Mercury first reported on the 29-year-old musician and former software tester from Joburg in 2011, on her first attempt at travelling around Africa – by peddling between 80km and 100km a day on her bicycle. “I came to the conclusion that the bicycle was a very bad idea. I figure I would have thrown it into the ocean by the time I got to Congo,” Rust said, laughing. “I made it up to northern Angola, and then I was attacked and my gear was stolen. The Angolan government jumped in when they heard about it, fetched me, and flew me home, and I started over,” Rust said in an interview during a stop in Durban at the weekend. On each of her arms is an array of beads and bracelets – a memento from each country – including a silver bangle from Senegal which a Tuareg (nomad) made for her while she watched him work on it.
and the wait for a visa, Rust spent up to two months in one place. “I’ve always been an explorer. I didn’t even realise it. But my brother told someone the other day that when we were kids we always cycled from the time the sun came up until it set, which is true. But he said that I was always up ahead, showing us where to go.” She has switched to motorcycles, though, she says. “I have found my passion.” Asked about the difficulties she encountered along the way, Rust said that aside from every muscle in her body aching, she had security concerns travelling in countries such as Libya. “I’ve been very lucky. Either someone would just show up and offer me a place to stay or, if there was a bikers’ club in the city, I would get in contact with them. As people started to know about me, they’d just pass me on from one friend or relative to the next.”
Tanzania and Ethiopia were among the most beautiful countries she travelled through. Rust’s next mission is to be the first woman from Africa to take on the Dakar rally. “Tunisia was my number one favourite country on this trip. The people were just so The Mercury / iol.motoring.co.za kind, so helpful, so welcoming.” Depending on road conditions, the size of a country

Ons hier by die Highlands Panorama Nuus was hierdie jaar bevoorreg om 23 voertuie van agt plaaslike handelaars en een motorfiets uit Nelspruit te toetsbestuur en daaroor aan ons lesers verslag te doen. Altesame het ons nou meer as 100 voertuie plaaslik getoets en sowat 8 motorfietse, oor die afgelope sowat 7 jaar. Elke toets het ’n rit van sowat 50 km, ’n volledige inspeksie van hulle kenmerke en ’n fotosessie ingesluit. Ons doel is om in gewone taal ons lesers ons indrukke van die voertuig te gee, sonder te veel tegniese data, wat in elk geval in brosjures en op die internet beskikbaar is. Ons kyk hoe aangenaam die rit is, hoe die voertuig op hoë spoed hanteer, hoe dit om draaie gaan, hoe dit versnel en hoe goed dit rem. Die toetse was dié jaar gedoen op: Ford Fiesta Ecoboost 1.0 Titanium (21 Februarie), VW Golf 7 - 1.4 TSI Comfortline (28 Februarie), Toyota 86 (7 Maart), Kia Sorento (21 Maart), Hyundai Santa Fe (18 April), Isuzu KB 300 D-Teq LX 4x2 (25 April), VW Tiguan 2.0 Bluemotion (9 Mei), VW Amarok 2.0
BiTDI - 4Motion 8-spoed (16 Mei), Nissan Hardbody NP 300 (30 Mei), Hyundai Veloster (6 Junie), Ford Transit Custom Paneelwa (6 Junie), Opel Astra OPC (13 Junie), VW Beetle 1.4 TSI Sport DSG (13 Junie), Ford Kuga 1.6 Ecoboost AWD Titanium (20 Junie), Kia Cerato 2.0 SX - 6-spoed (20 Junie), Isuzu KB 250 D-TEQ (27 Junie), VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion (18 Julie), Nissan NV 200 Combi Bussie (25 Julie), Nissan Almera (5 September), Nissan Sentra 1.6 Acenta Handrat (26 September), Hyundai ix35 2.0 Executive 6-spoed Outo Petrol (3 Oktober), Nissan NP 200 1.6 - 16V - 1000 km (10 Oktober), Ford Ecosport 1.0 Trend (17 Oktober) en die BMW R1200 GS Motorfiets (21 November). Elke jaar kies ek uit die motors ook my gunstelinge. My keuse vir mees opwindende motor van die jaar: Opel Astra OPC. Motor met die beste hantering: Toyota 86. Beste SUV: VW Touareg V6 TDI. Beste Dubbelkajuit: VW Amarok 8 spoed outo. Beste Tweede Motor: VW Tiguan 2.0 Bluemotion. Wat ek die graagste in my motorhuis wil sien: Drie Volkswagens nl. die Touareg, Tiguan en Amarok. Beste waarde vir geld: NissanAlmera. Wat ek gekoop het: Nissan NP 200 1.6 (16V). Aangenaamste toets: Die nuwe BMW R1200 GS (’n hele naweek lank!). Ons het ook begin met ’n nuwe reeks deur ons motorhandelaars se werkwinkels en hulle dienspersoneel aan u, ons lesers, voor te stel. Ons het die volgende sewe plekke besoek en oor berig: Hyundai (24 Oktober), Longtom Nissan (31 Oktober), De Graaf Under Car (7 November), Westvaal Mashishing (14 November), McGee & Co (21 November), en VW Highlands (28 November). In Januarie sal ons Kia en Toyota se werkwinkels besoek. Hartseer vir my was die ou wat in my 1971 Chev SS vasgejaag het. Ek spook steeds met die versekeraars. Ons het berig oor die Wildevy 4X4 (met die hulp van die Platinum Gazette se William en Beanla), JIMS, die Dakar, die Le Mans 24 uur, en vir u stories gebring oor nog sowat 100 ander voertuie. Altesame 200 bladsye motornuus, 360 (toetsmotor) fotos en so 350 uur se werk. So, as dit nie volledige motornuus en diens aan ons plaaslike handelaars en motorentoesiaste (lesers) is nie, dan weet ek nie wat is nie! Ons hoop julle het dit geniet en as ons die lewe hou doen ons dit weer in 2014. Andre Coetzee.

WITH most new vehicles sold with either service or maintenance plans, cars aren’t bought for the economy of their parts. However, the second or third owner might not take parts prices lightly, which is where the annual Kinsey Report can be helpful. Journalist Malcolm Kinsey has released the 2013 parts pricing report which compares a standard basket of service, repair and crash parts across various vehicle categories. This year’s report is the largest to date, covering 69 vehicles, with most of the extra models being found in the increasingly popular crossover category. In the city car section, the Nissan Micra once again takes number one spot with a total basket price of R23 517, ahead of the Suzuki Alto and Tata Indica. The Ford Figo, VW Polo Vivo and Renault Sandero, in that order, have the cheapest parts baskets in the entry-level category, although there’s very little difference between them. In the super-mini class, the Peugeot 208 scoops the honours, giving lie to the popular belief that French cars are pricey to maintain. Its total basket cost of R52 247 is some R5 000 less than that of another unexpected contender, the Fiat Punto. In fact, this category has pretty much turned on its head with the first three places all being newcomers – third place going to the new Renault Clio 0.9 Turbo. Nissan’s Tiida again takes the family class. With a basket total of R47 015 it has an advantage of some R20 000 on the second and thirdplaced Toyota Corolla and Hyundai Elantra, both at over R67 000. The Toyota Avanza wins the compact crossover category. With a total parts basket of R60 762, it’s comfortably ahead of the Nissan Livina at R74 168 and the Suzuki SX4. By far the largest class in the 2013 Kinsey Report is the crossover category for large SUVS, and here the Toyota Fortuner 3.0 D4D has the most affordable parts basket, ahead of the Kia Sportage and Nissan Qashqai. The double-cab bakkie winner is the Tata Xenon, heading the field at R47 823, and the GWM Steed following with a total parts basket of R53 909. Third, and by far the best-seller, is the Toyota Hilux at R71 866. The cheapest parts basket in the executive class is the BMW 328i (R98 807), followed by the Audi A4 (R108 801) and Honda Accord (R118 183). One final point: because the Competitions Board allows for only recommended retail prices, a dealership may mark up a product to whatever it feels the market will bear. In his research Kinsey found that prices of an identical part can vary as much as 20 percent from dealer to dealer, so it’s worth your while to shop around. Star Motoring / iol.motoring ED: Remember that you can save on the purchase price of your car, by opting out of a service plan. Service plans are generally expensive and most parts are covered by your warranty, so shop carefully. Also shop around for parts prices. A 20% difference might be large in the final analysis. I once rebuilt a 1400 Nissan Champ engine, saving almost 50% by shopping at different outlets for the different engine parts. KIA MOTORS BURGERSFORT, Main Road, Tel: 013 231 8430

It’s not often that a manufacturer can celebrate producing one million versions of the same model. To do so on local soil is a milestone that we can all be proud of. Toyota South Africa Motors last week celebrated as the millionth locally manufactured Corolla rolled of the production line at the company’s Prospecton Plant in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal. The white Toyota Corolla that came off the production line on Wednesday 20 November 2013 crowns six years of successful production in which the Corolla was produced in both left and right hand drive variants and exported to regions including Eastern and Western Europe, the Caribbean and Africa. “It is very symbolic that the Corolla reaches this milestone now,” says Dr Johan van Zyl, President and CEO of Toyota South Africa Motors. “It not only celebrates a very successful production run for the tenth generation world’s favourite car, but it heralds the introduction of the new Corolla in 2014.”
Please contact Annetjie or Charmaine at the workshop
The Corolla was first introduced in South Africa in 1975 and soon became a stalwart of the SA market, always near the top of the sales charts. While the 1 millionth Corolla will find pride of place next to the 1 millionth Hilux in Toyota’s museum at its Sales and Marketing Head Office in Sandton, the Prospecton Plant is busy preparing the manufacturing facility for the start of production of the new Corolla, which was revealed at the recent Johannesburg International Motor Show in October. “The Corolla benefitted from our R8 billion investment programme (first announced in 2008), which modernised the plant and introduced a state of the art paint plant. With the new Corolla we hope to start our next round of investment and look forward to sharing this plan, when our first new generation Corolla models roll off the line,” says Dr Van Zyl.

WE’RE TURNING UP THE HEAT THIS SUMMER I was intrigued to read on Wheels24 recently about an American car enthusiast, Irvin Gordon, and his record-breaking Volvo that has racked up close to five million kilometres. I've owned many, many cars down the years but never a Volvo. Not that there’s anything wrong with them, they just kind of slipped through the net. I’ve owned the strangest wheels in more than 45 years of chasing that elusive bargain car. I well remember buying a Sunbeam Talbot, at least three Morgans, a half-share in a Lotus Special, 1950's Ford Consul as well as a late 1920’s Austin Seven Opal coupé, but I’ve always admired the Volvo brand and would have been happy to own one – but never did. Something else always seemed to come along. I can’t remember if Cape Town had a Volvo dealer back in the mid-1970's (perhaps somebody will take the trouble to email and tell me). Johannesburg certainly had at least one. Volvo has a number now countrwwide, but I was always intrigued by how many cars filtered through to the rest of the country. The head of the Craib family, who owned the Natal Witness newspaper in Pietermaritzburg back in the 1970's and my employer at the time, owned the rare and very desirable P1800 model. One of the advertising reps on the paper also drove a Volvo, a 122 sedan – a really beautiful example that was used seven days a week, 52 weeks a year. Looking further afield, a huge Volvo enthusiast is one Colin Powell, the former secretary of state and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the US. He actually owned – and still does – half a dozen Volvos (along with a couple of rare SAABs). A TV ad flighted a number of years ago in America claimed: “A Volvo offers the best bang for your buck… a Volvo in its native Sweden lasts on average 17 years.” Quite an accolade, don’t you think? Up until 1960 those who were familiar with the Volvo brand may well remember the Beetleback 544 model. Available only in left-hand drive, it certainly put the marque on the map with its sporty and rugged good looks. But it was the 122S that really put Volvo well and truly on the radar globally. The first export cars to South Africa had 1.6-litre engines that lugged around a 1070 kg body – yet was still capable of 150km/h+ – a feature that always seems to endear itself to the South African drivers, even today! Comfort features were top-drawer and included a heater/demister system that worked well in Scandinavia, so it wouldn’t be a problem here!, fully adjustable seats, two-speed wipers (with electric washers), a radiator blind for those cold, frosty mornings to help the engine warm up and three-point seat belts – a first for the automobile industry (in full-time production, that is – regular readers of this column will recall I told you Tucker cars boasted them as well.) But the B18-engined version of the 122S that arrived in 1963 was arguably the “bees knees” to own. Up 10kW in power, disc brakes up front, 12V electrics, a lusty 1.8 twin-carburettor engine that could really fly when required - the clubman’s car of choice. I well remember Lawsons Motors in Braamfontein, Johannesburg, the main Volvo dealer in the country, who used the skills of Dave Clapham and Colin Burford to secure victory after victory at club meets around the race circuits of South Africa, including Killarney here in the Western Cape – as well as, alas, defunct race circuits such as Roy Hesketh in Pietermaritzburg and the infamous Westmead circuit near Pinetown. Perhaps the final word should come from Colin Powell, who said: “Don’t expect to make a fortune from your 122 – at least not in the short term. It’s not an 'image' car in the same way as a period BMW or Alfa – but it will definitely be around for a good deal longer!” Dave Fall - Wheels24.co.za

Rina van Heerden met die twee silwer medaljes wat sy pas by die wêreld Meesters Atletiekkampioenskappe in Brazil gewen
LMAL wat Rina van Heerden ken is nie verbaas dat sy pas terug is van die Meesters Wêreld Atletiekkampioenskappe met goeie nuus nie. En dit met twee silwer medaljes in haar sak. Wanneer sy ’n doelwit gestel het staan daar min in haar pad om dit te bereik. Die Meesters Wêreld Atletiekkampioenskappe het plaasgevind vanaf 16 tot 27 Oktober in Porto Alegre, Brasilië. Sy is immers ’n atleet wat altyd baie deursettingsvermoë toon. As dit by die kompetisiedae kom sit sy altyd daardie ekstra krag in om haar doel te bereik. Twee silwer medaljes is voorwaar ’n groot prestasies vir hierdie atleet van Lydenburg. Sy bedank graag borge en mense van Hoërskool Lydenburg, Lydenburg Konstruksie, Ndallen Boerdery, Pick n Pay, Longtom SuperSPAR, Sizwe en Frazer Alexander wat haar deelname moontlik gemaak het. Almal weet dat Atletiek Suid-Afrika groot finansiële probleme het en tans nie atlete kan help met oorsese deelname nie. Rina het nog altyd vertrou in God dat hy vir haar ’n weg sal oopbaan. Sy het tydens die SA Meesters Atletiek Kampioenskappe
vanaf 26 tot 27 April in Oudshoorn, vier goue medaljes gewen. Die items was 80m, 100m, 200m en 300m hekkies. Sewe provinsies asook Zimbabwe was hier teenwoordig. Sy het ook as deel van die byeenkoms vir die Baflosspan ’n brons medalje gewen. In Miyazaki, Japan het sy tydens die Wêreld Meesters Atltiekkampioenskappe ’n silwer medalje vir die 400m hekkies en ’n brons medalje ingepalm. En by ’n vorige Meesters in Durban het sy twee vierde plekke ingepalm. Dit is duidelik dat sy tot groot hoogtes in staat is. Sy het al verskeie kere bewys dat hekkies nie haar baas is nie. En daar wen sy werklik twee silwer in Brazil. Sy het haar eie droom bewaarheid.
Sabie Solo Xperience & Team Lite Cycle Race 13-16 December THE Sabie Solo Xperience and Team Lite races give both teams and individuals the opportunity to race. The true ‘race snake’ can continue to fight it out for honours in the Sabie Solo Xperience, and the Sabie Team Lite ride will now also be a fully fledged stage race. So now the Sabie Team Lite riders can also individually enter this event together with their partners or other family members. The distances will be around 12 – 16km, and traverse some of the best single track in the lower slopes of the mountains. We will be organising a trail run for those interested on the last two days. This run offers a unique opportunity to explore some of the most spectacular scenery in the Lowveld. Over two (and a 1/2) days you will be challenged with 3 breath taking stages which will leave you with an unforgettable Trail Run that will challenge your strength, stamina and speed. Each Stage will start and finish at the York Sports Grounds in Sabie. Sandy Korb 013 764 3500 (raceoffice@sabiexperience.co.za)
