Riders taking part in the much loved Contego Wines2Whales MTB Race powered by Maserati will be pleased to hear that the prize purse for 2012 has increased considerably from 2011.
According to Michael Meyer (Director Contego Wines2Whales) it is with great excitement that the prize purse has been increased. “The Contego Wines2Whales celebrates its 4th anniversary this year. The event has grown extensively since its introduction in 2009, because of this we are able to increase the prize money to over R200 000. Our winning men’s and women’s teams will ride off with R15 000 after day three, while our mixed team winners will take home R10 000. We trust that this will make their victories that much sweeter,” says Meyer.
