Spotlight on the East Side Crits: A Racing Series We Love 

The East Side Crits, masterminded by Jeremy Maartens from Bike Craft Performance Coaching, have become a standout highlight in the local racing scene, and the RKC Collective Cycling Team is thrilled to be a part of it!

What Makes the East Side Crits Special?

Monthly Criterium Races
The East Side Crits offer a dynamic criterium race each month, providing cyclists with a fantastic opportunity to showcase their skills and compete in a high-energy environment. These races are designed to be both thrilling for participants and engaging for spectators, making them a perfect fit for what Cycling South Africa needs.

A Year-End Celebration
At the end of the year, all monthly race results culminate in the announcement of the overall winner. This adds an exciting layer of competition and keeps riders motivated throughout the season.
