The past weekend the JAG Ladies Epic Team participated in the Attekwas MTB race. One of the tougest races on the MTN MTB Series calendar, 121km from Oudtshoorn to Groot Brak and 2800m of climbing!

Naomi Rothmann had a fantastic race and managed to secure a 1st Place in the Senior Ladies Category! Achieving her goal that she has been training so hard for! What a Champ!!!
Eulogy du Plessis managed to secure a 5th place in the Senior Ladies Category, just keeping an easy pace ;)



After a great December holiday doing lots of miles with smiles, it is back to the office for both of them...
Looking forward to weekends when they will be doing more long training rides, getting those legs ready for the ABSA Cape Epic!
