The King Price Race to the Sun was started in 2018, inspired by the growing global excitement around long-distance gravel racing. What began as a bold idea quickly became a bucket-list event on the gravel racing calendar, drawing cyclists eager to push their limits and chase new horizons. This 160 km journey begins with a neutral start at Hartbeespoort Die Oewer and finishes at the iconic Sun City. The route is designed to be fast and flat, with a total elevation gain of just 1000m, making it accessible to cyclists of all skill levels.
Riders will pedal through farms, canals, local communities, and roads in Brits, experiencing the diversity and beauty of the region. Along the way, they’ll be greeted by enthusiastic locals and cheering children, adding to the vibrant spirit of the race. There will be water points along the route to keep everyone fueled and hydrated.
