WINNERS OF THE N3TC DIRTY HARRY MTB TOOK THE WIND IN THEIR STRIDE



Samantha Oosthuizen (Garmin) from Gauteng continues to make her mark on the N3TC Dirty Harry MTB Challenge. As overall winner of the Ladies 75km race, Samantha defeated the strong winds that were experienced in Harrismith and out in the Platberg Nature Reserve to finish in a time of 03:23:16. Samantha took second position in the 2008 Dirty Harry and continued to impress at this year’s event.

The dry and dusty weather conditions did not keep Sub Veteran Shaun Peschl (Garmin)also from Gauteng from taking the title in the 75km Men’s race. He took the title in a time of 02:46:36. He was followed by Renier Bellingan who took second place in a time of 2:51:44.

The long and steady curves, coupled with some steep climbs and single track through the Platberg and surrounding farms gave the cyclists more spirits. And they soldiered on against some strong winds to make it to the finish at the Platberg Stadium.

The shorter race took others by surprise. Stephan Reyneke, competing in the Junior Mens category won the 38km distance in a time of 1:41:56. Sub Junior, Marinus Van Sandwyk, finished second in 02:50:00. Marlien de Bont was the overall Ladies winner in the 38km event, finishing in 2:39:24.

“Nothing adds more value to an event like the N3TC Dirty Harry MTB than the local community’s support. This year, the Harrismith Cycling Club together with the support of Spectrum Sport made the N3TC Dirty Harry ‘happen’. N3TC would like to thank all those involved in the event, including the wonderful water points who provide an invaluable service to the cyclists. It was a fantastic team effort and well done to all,” commented Andy Visser, PR and Communications Manager of N3TC.

The N3TC Dirty Harry was one of the many outstanding events at this year’s Harrismith Berg Bohaai. “The Berg Bohaai was a resounding success and N3TC was exceptionally proud to be part of this fantastic community effort,” concluded Visser.
