So our pocket rocket pilot Jess went Gallavanting in the beautiful surrounds of the Witteberge and this is what she has to say about it!

SAFFY'S NOTORIOUSLY GNARLY NON-STOP WARTRAIL COCKTAIL RECIPE

A classic twist from the original staged, three day event. Think Wartrail (run/bike/paddle)... but on steroids. No dossing. No Comforts. Just non-stop epic-ness! Guaranteed to provide you with tons of "war" stories and blow your dinners guests minds at your next quaint cocktail party.

Prep time:

34hrs

You will need:

1 x spoon of cement and some Cleanex tissue's

2 x legit seconds (preferably 1 x mum for that extra bit of TLC plus 1 x over eager friend that is oblivious to the giant task ahead)

1 x pair running skoen, bike and boat (don't forget the buoyancy!)

1 x sense of humour (preferably one that never falters)

Method:

Take a stunning, jaw dropping, ma-jess-tic, 60km sky run along the Witteberg mountain range from Lady Grey to Balloch.

Blend up with a gnarly 130km MTB leg.

NOTE: Leg must consist of at least one mother of a hike-a-bike, a sh!t load of uphills and preferably little to no down hills. If you are feeling really brave, add a pinch of some railway track (the extra bumpy, slippery sort) just in case your butt cheeks have not been adequately tenderised in the first 100km prior. For a naughty twist, chuck in some PVC piping on a single track section (at night) to dismount 1 x Ugene Nel at pace (this will add the infamous Saffy twist)

Once blended and mixed well, add some fatigue and finish up with a 60km paddle down the mighty Orange River. Make sure its in flood.

Serve ice-cold, on the rocks with some thunderstorms and hail to give it that final bite.

All in all, one for the books! Highly recommended!
