If you’re keen to get your bike (and yourself) properly dirty, clear your calendar for 26 October 2024. The Adventure Company’s Dirt Diggers Outride is happening in Ventersdorp, and you don’t want to miss it.

What’s the Deal?

This is no hectic race with podiums and pressure – it's a lekker, laid-back outride where the focus is on enjoying the trails, hanging out, and maybe getting lost a few times (with a bit of help from your friends to find your way back, obviously).

The venue? Ventersdorp, with its epic countryside, has kindly been opened up by the folks at Diggers Inn and a few of their neighbours. They're promising loads of twists, turns, and even some rocky bits to keep things interesting. The route is suitable for bikes, quads, and side-by-sides, so bring whatever gets your adventure juices flowing.

The Best Part?

Do as many laps as you like. Yep, no one’s going to shout at you to stop – it’s all up to you and how many twists and turns you want to tackle.

And the cherry on top? No one goes hungry on this outride! Expect coffee and rusks to kick off your morning (can’t start without that), and when you’ve worked up an appetite after a few laps, lunch is on the cards. That’s what we call proper South African hospitality!

Pricing Breakdown

• Adults: R550 per rider

• Kids under 12: R450 per rider

Make sure you get your bookings in early, so they can make sure there’s enough chow to go around. And just a heads-up – you’ll get an email with all the final details the week before the ride, so keep an eye out for that.

Not Just for the Pros

Whether you’re a regular biker or you’re still trying to remember which lever does what, you’re welcome here. With marshals to help you out along the way, you won’t be left stuck in the middle of nowhere. The social vibe makes it great for families too – everyone’s welcome to come along and get properly dirty.
