Winter Series MTB Malawi

Hello all mountain bikers! We are planning two events this year. Dates will be announced in the next couple of weeks. I am waiting for the rivers to subside so I can go out and finalize the route. Please feel free to comment and make suggestions/recommend dates etc. Let's get the wheels rolling. This route will be raced twice this year in opposite directions! Brace yourselves.. it's a fantastic challenge 🚵‍♂️

Mangochi rides are becoming very interesting 😆 I've been doing some exploring lately and found some amazing technical single tracks by passing most village so the rides are peaceful and quiet with awesome bush and views. Anyone in the lake are over weekends keen for a ride let me know.

Took some peeps out to get opinions on the routes I've set for the 24th July 2021! The feedback was great and everyone is excited about the race and the new routes. Best you start training. Please feel free to contact me on +265 998951295 for more information. Accommodation is available but book soon as chalets are limited. Plenty of great camping space. Let's make a weekend of fun and catching up since we haven't been able to meet for so long.!!

Some pics of what to expect along the routes at the Winter Series race on the 24th July. Short route is 23km and the long route is just over 60km. Both routes start and finish at Kingfisher Inn. For more information please feel free to contact me Paul Kennedy on WhatsApp. +265 998 951 295. See you all soon

Let's get the wheels rolling again guys. We are returning to the venue of the very first Winter Series race ever held. Over the past few years the Winter Series grew from just 23 entries to 89 entries at our last race in Zomba. We are extremely proud of the growth of MTB in Malawi and it is all thanks to you our valued supporters. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

Zomba final race for this year

A big thank you to all our amazing cycling buddies that competed in this year’s series. The final race was held in beautiful Zomba and it did not disappoint!

The routes are both very similar to last year. Short route just over 20km and the long route around 43 km with over 1000 meters of elevation.

A minibus will leave the blantyre sports club at 5AM for those who need a lift to the race. It will return after prize giving. For those who need bikes taken to Zomba, the trailer is available!
