After years of racing around the mythical forests of Cascades in Pietermaritzburg, the South African leg of the UCI World Cup circuit will be heading to the Cape – specifically Stellenbosch. I joined the Bicycling team at the launch of the event; and I was struck by the professionalism and vision of the organizing team, as well as the development of the course to date.
