Absa Cape Epic 2020 Race Week Announced

The grueling Absa Cape Epic 2020 has been canceled, but Zwift has organized Absa Cape Epic Race week – a series of events focused on “bringing the Absa Cape Epic experience to Zwift!” Of course, these events are nothing like the Cape Epic rides in terms of duration or difficulty – Zwift calls them “Cape Epic-inspired events.” They’ll be as difficult as you make them! And everyone will be riding the Scott Spark mountain bike.

Are These Races?

Here’s the official line from Zwift:

Nope. This is all about celebrating the Cape Epic with the Zwift community. But be warned: some will go full tilt. If you’re into a challenge, you may find yourself riding just as hard as you would in a race. In the end, the choice is yours.

Mar 15-16: TT Prologue - Tempus Fugit, 1 Lap

Mar 17 + 19: Race Week Ride - Jungle Circuit, 2 Laps
