The Investec Great Kei Trek Overview
The Investec Great Kei Trek, is a 3-day, 180km MTB ride. A race that isn’t a race. A solo or 2-rider team event, with different entry package options.
Once again, the stunning seaside village of Morgan Bay will be the home base of The Investec Great Kei Trek, just an hour’s drive up the coast from East London.
Three days, three different rides, but one venue. Morgan Bay.
Three days, riding on privately owned farms, riding into the Old Transkei, crossing the Kei River Ferry, and watching the sea break onto the cliffs of Morgan Bay.
Exciting visits will include the picturesque Bayview Farm, Oppie Plaas, a charming country restaurant, the Haga Haga Hotel, Trennerys, Seagulls, the now infamous Bushpig, the Shed, and if you are up to it, a shebeen or two on the way. And for good measure, the Kei Mouth Golf Course.
One venue means you can unpack your suitcase and not have the stress of moving your luggage from race village to race village.
