Top five finish at MTN Hilton National MTB will secure the overall National MTB Series title for Knox
It rarely occurs that Max Knox (Specialized) has the luxury of going into a cycling race with absolutely no pressure on him to win.
When he lines up to start the MTN Hilton Ultra Marathon in KwaZulu-Natal on the 23th September, he will be in that privileged position.
With his dominant performance at the MTN Gravel Travel and SA Championship, which enabled him to finish nearly 12 minutes ahead of David George (Nedbank360Life) and 23 minutes ahead of Kevin Evans (Nedbank360Life), Knox had basically secured an overall victory in the MTN National MTB Series.

JoBerg2C day 3 – Heading to Sterkfontein Dam
There was some nervous energy around the breakfast tables this morning, with 125km looming ahead making day 3 the longest day distance wise of the entire JoBerg2c. And to make things a little worse, it was freezing in Reitz, proper freezing. Another mass start again saw us following a huge Massey Ferguson tractor for a 8km’s of neutral riding until the racing started. I had made a conscious decision to start slower and have a fairly chilled day.
