To help make your journey through the Tribal lands of the Transkei a little easier, we have a #NoHasslePackage built just for that.

For the JHB riders, drop your bike off at RaceWorx KTM and have it sent to the start at Ocean View Hotel.

You then hop on a plane from JHB or CPT and fly to Mthatha Airport, and the team from Red Cherry Events fetch you from the airport. After a short transfer to Ocean View Hotel, you are reunited with your bike before your #EpicAdventure begins.

About Sea to Sea

Sea to Sea powered by JBFE is designed for the Enduro Motorcycle Rider, keen on experiencing the Wild Coast and being part of an Epic Adventure. With 3 routes to choose from each day, being either Gold, Silver or Adventure,. You have the option to pick your poison and decide whether to go Wild or keep it Mild.

The Sea to Sea powered by JBFE event requires no support driver… Red Cherry will provide the back-up vehicle to transport your luggage & fuel each day. This is truly, a ‘hassle-free’ experience.

The ride of 3 days exposes the 60-odd teams to some of the most incredible enduro riding in the world as they navigate their way via GPS from Ocean View Hotel to The Haven Hotel. From here we do an outride with many options to go Mild and Wild! Day 3 takes the ride on a new route all the way back to Ocean View Hotel. The overnights are made up of 3 Hotel stays.

It’s not a race and the challenge is to get through the 3 days together with your partner. For safety reasons, there are checkpoints en route and time bars in place. Keeping a steady pace with the occasional stop for a pic or 2 will see you get in safely and in time. It is only suitable for Enduro Bikes, preferably with an electric start.

3 Routes Available

Gold

This route is for those hard-enduro riders who love a little challenge and are prepared to engage in some teamwork to get home. The degree of difficulty is equivalent to a Bronze Roof rider and to jump across to the easier Silver route  is easy.  75% of the Gold and Silver are common, so you are never far from an escape.

Silver

Designed for those weekend warriors who just want to have fun. For many, this is the 1st time event and over the years we have seen our female participation in the Silver class grow. If things get a little too tough and you want to find easier options then you can jump onto the “Adventure” route for a quick way home

Adventure Bikes

This route is designed for those Adventure Bikers and would typically be suitable for the T7’s , 790’s, Africa Twin, etc but there is no reason that those skilled Adventure bikers could not tackle this route on a 1290 or 1250. It’s mostly twisty gravel roads with friendly Jeep track and single track thrown in. Distances are about 120km per day with the Adventure class heading inland to cross the rivers.
