  • The 2025 Team Absa Training Camp has set the stage for what promises to be another incredible Absa Cape Epic. From 23-26 January, over 150 riders, including 60 women from the #SheUntamed class of 2025, gathered in South Africa for four days of skill-building, endurance training, and community engagement. What started 16 years ago as a small group of 10 riders has grown into a thriving community of cyclists preparing for the ultimate challenge—the 700km Absa Cape Epic, taking place from 16-23 March 2025. But this camp was about more than just race preparation; it was a reminder of how sport has the power to uplift, empower, and transform lives. From navigating technical trails to giving back through the Legacy Fund at Yarrow Intermediate School, every moment reinforced the impact of collaboration, resilience, and community. With the incredible support of our partners, riders, and guests, we’ve built memories that will last well beyond the trails. Now, the countdown to the Absa Cape Epic begins! 🚴♀️🚴♂️ @karkloof @ILoveBoobies @squirtcyclingproducts @wooliessa @usnsa @capeepic @aquelle @toyotasa @videecafe #YourStoryMatters #AbsaCapeEpic #OurStoriesGoFurther
