Sea to Sea South
A 3-day navigational team enduro, taking riders on a round trip through the tribal lands of the Transkei of South Africa. Staying at Trennerys and Kob Inn Beach Hotel.
Who takes part?
JBFE Sea to Sea is designed for the social enduro rider. Does not require any backup drivers as the team from Red Cherry Events handle this all. The event can accommodate teams of 2 – 25 riders with hotels being the choice for accommodation each night.
We are heading south!
We utilise 2 great beach hotels, the combination of Trennerys and Kob Inn Beach Resort.
We start our journey at Trennerys Hotel and spend 2 evenings at Kob Inn before returning to Trennerys.
JBFE Announced as Title Sponsor
In a groundbreaking move, JBFE is set to take the helm as the official title sponsor for Sea to Sea, starting in 2024. This exciting partnership will bring about a rebranding of both Sea to Sea events, now known as JBFE Sea to Sea North and JBFE Sea to Sea South.
14 - May 2025 #EpicAdventure
NO HASSLE PACKAGE | NEW FOR SOUTH
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 Trennerys Hotel.
For the CPT Riders, drop your bike off at FAST KTM and have it sent across the country to Trennerys beach Hotel and back.
You then hop on a plane from JHB or CPT to East London Airport, and the team from Red Cherry Events will pick you up from the airport. After a short transfer to Trennerys Hotel, you are reunited with your bike before your #EpicAdventure begins.
Once finished on Saturday, your bike gets loaded back into the truck, you spend the final night at Trennerys Hotel and we shuttle you back to the East London Airport on Sunday. Your bike will then arrive back in either CPT or JHB by 19 May.

About JBFE Sea to Sea
JBFE Sea to Sea is designed for the weekend warrior, keen on experiencing the Wild Coast and being part of an epic adventure but not in the mood for extreme enduro. 2023 had the largest field of female riders and lots of Dads n Lads. Don’t be fooled, however – it still remains challenging.
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 Trennerys to Kob Inn up the Qora Valleys, 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 Kob Inn. The overnights are made up of 3 Hotel stays and no more tented village with average daily distances of 80kms.
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.
