Munnik Meerkat MTB Challenge 2025

Munnik Farmers (Pty) Limited is one of the oldest Farmers' Association in South Africa, founded on the 23rd of February 1917. Munnik once supported a busy local farming community, including a railway station, community hall, post office, garage, general dealer, clinic, butchery, sports fields and schools. However, times and technology have changed, most of the cattle farms are now conservation areas, filled with plains game - some even have buffalo.

The tiny village of Munnik needs urgent attention to return to her former glory as the most beautiful railway station in South Africa - an honour bestowed on her in the past. We hope that through the fund-raising of this race and other events hosted by the Munnik community, we will be able to achieve this and help Munnik to become sustainable once more through the development of much needed community projects.

This race is presented by members of the Munnik Farmers' Association.

We are very proud to announce that our event is still a qualifier for Limpopo colours. Only the 35km, 50km and 70km race will be used as Limpopo Colours qualifiers and will be timed races.

The 15km is a fun ride and can not be seen or used as Provincial or National colours qualifiers.

THERE ARE SHOWERS AVAILABLE AT THE RACE!!

So please feel free to freshen up after the race and stay on to enjoy the atmosphere and relax in the Beer Garden!
