WELCOME TO SOUTH AFRICAS MOST DIVERSE STAGE RACE
The 2025 edition of the M&G Investments PE Plett is taking on a slightly different format. Our riders will start their journey from Mentors Kraal in Jefferys Bay, following over 280 kms along the famous Garden Route and finishing 4 days later at the Kurland Polo Club.
We’ve decided to spend the final 2 stages of the 2025 edition exploring the Tsitsikamma Forest. This decision is based on feedback from our riders after a highly successful running of this format in 2024.
Whether you’re a dedicated racer or a relaxed rider, this is a spectacular journey you shouldn’t miss. Entries are limited to 250 riders for “The Ride” and 80 for “The Tour“. This prestigious event has sold out for the last 6 years. We also have a new pricing structure, which means the earlier you enter, the more you save as we build up to South Africa’s most diverse stage race. Click here to see the fee structure ahead of the 2025 event.
For the 2025 edition, we have multiple entry options, pick what suits you best!
Any entries after 10 January 2025 and those who aren't fully paid by 10 January 2025 will not be eligible for a race pack.
