THE 2012 CAPE ARGUS PICK N PAY CYCLE TOUR IS OVER – WHAT NEXT?
It’s more than a week since you crossed the Cape Argus Pick n Pay Cycle Tour start line, but the events office is still buzzing with post-event activity.

In addition to processing your post-race queries, we are already taking all the learnings from 2012 and seeing what we can incorporate into our 2013 Cycle Tour planning.

Important Notes

  • If you lost anything on Race Day, please mail us at info@cycletour.co.za with all the details and we will try to help you.
  • If you picked up a lost item on the route or at the finish line, please mail info@cycletour.co.za with your contact details and a detailed description of the item.  Please note however that, while we appreciate riders calling us with the details of items they had found, we do not give out any rider’s details to anybody. It doesn’t mean that we are unwilling to help but rather that we protect all riders’ privacy.  We will match your e-mail with details of an item found to any request about items lost and will take appropriate action.
  • If you completed both the Cape Argus Pick n Pay MTB Challenge (52km / 65km) AND the Cape Argus Pick n Pay Cycle Tour, you may be eligible for the coveted Combo Medal.  All medals will be posted to qualifying riders once we have finalised the results for the Cycle Tour.
  • Seeding events for the 2013 Cycle Tour will take place around the country throughout the course of this year.  Visit our Seeding page for information on an event closest to you.
  • Visit the Action Photo website to view your race pics!
  • Catch the final Cycle Tour highlights package on Saturday (23 March) at 8pm (SS6 / SS6A)

Thanks once again for your support.  All proceeds generated by this event will once again be split equally between the Rotary Club of Claremont and the Pedal Power Association who, in turn, will distribute the funds among charitable projects and cycling development initiatives. For more information on this, please visit our Causes page, or watch the Where The Money Went video that we posted on our Facebook page.

Safe cycling!
