Octoberˇ¦s 2016 African Continental BMX
Championships will be proudly hosted by Giba Gorge Park in
KwaZulu-Natal.
Sunday, 2 October, will welcome the African Continental
Championships, which attracts not only riders as young as five
years old, but also riders all the way up to 50 years of age.
This event will draw competitors of all ages from all around
Africa.
Neighbouring country and regular friend of the South African BMX
community, Zimbabwe, has confirmed their entry to the event, and
race organisers expect keen interest from other African
countries as well.
South African BMX superstars Alex Limberg, Dylan Eggar, Manqoba
Madida and Tyler Klumper, along with Rio Olympian Kyle Dodd (to
name a few), are also in the mix to battle it out for their
respective continental titles.
The venue, Giba Gorge in sunny KwaZulu-Natal, will not only be
hosting the African Continental BMX Championships on the Sunday,
but also the South African National BMX Championships and the
last two rounds of the National Age Group Series on the
Saturday.
Giba Gorge is a favourite among many South African BMX
enthusiasts, and the only track in Africa with a BMX Supercross
track. There is also a 8-metre and 5-m start hill. The venue
hosted both the African Continental and South African National
BMX Championships two years ago. ˇV Source: www.sascoc.co.za |
