David Bellairs, a director of the CTCTT,
explains: “Traditionally, general public entries for the Cycle Tour have opened
on the first day of September. This year, the entries open date has been
delayed to coincide with an exciting announcement about the tour. While a
few changes will be introduced, they will not impact on the format of the route
and our main priority remains to provide the world-class experience that
participants and spectators have come to expect.”
The Cycle Tour has grown from humble beginnings,
attracting only a few hundred participants in its inaugural year in 1978, to
the much-loved international event it is today.
Acknowledged as the
world’s largest timed cycle race, it sees keen cyclists from all over the world
flocking to Cape Town on the second Sunday in March each year to participate in
this iconic event.

Cycle Tour can like us on Facebook www.facebook.com/cycletour
