The B-Well Around the Pot, presented by SEESA gravel extravaganza will take place on Friday 26 and Saturday 27 July in the Swellendam area.
The event uses the terrain of the Overberg to its fullest in creating a collection of route options that feature glorious wide open gravel roads.
Perfect for riding with your mates and taking in the brilliant scenery of canola fields in full bloom. Riders can choose from 321 km, 160 km, 98 km and 40 km. For many, the highlight of Around the Pot is the ferry crossing of the Malgas River. The three longer routes use this pont to cross over towards the N2, for the final stretch back to Swellendam, with the 25-miler choosing, instead, to take in the sublime trails and wildlife of the Bontebok National Park.
There is a 45-minute neutral zone at the pont, to allow for the time it takes to shepherd grimy bikers across the river, with food and music to keep the spirits up.
