reviews

Rider

I’ve done plenty of rides in SA, but the Grand Slam routes are some of the best marked and best supported. Having the option to choose one loop or go for both made it easy to ride at my own pace.

A fantastic series for building confidence. Each Grand Slam gets a little longer, but the structure makes progression feel natural. It’s become a key part of my training calendar.

It’s challenging, but never intimidating.

The atmosphere is always welcoming and organised. Volunteers are supportive, the signage is clear, and the whole day feels smooth from start to finish. It’s the kind of event that keeps you coming back.

Consistently one of the best value rides in SA. Great support, friendly riders, well planned routes, and a real sense of achievement at the finish. It sets the standard for community cycling events.
