It’s go‑time! Load up your gear, strap on your gravel shoes, and aim for the wide‑open Karoo horizon. The Tanqua Kuru is calling, and we’re answering with throttles, pedals, and hearts wide open. At least four Sling aircraft and our solid team of riders will make the pilgrimage to Tankwa Tented Camp for what’s become an annual tradition of grit, gravel, and greatness.
…across dry pans where jackals, kudu and mirages keep pace. Whether you hammer for a podium or coast for the stories, every kilometre is pure, unfiltered adventure. In addition, in partnership with the Tanqua Kuru team, a few lucky participants will get the chance to see the Karoo from the sky, joining Team Sling on aerial flips aboard our aircraft. It’s our way of sharing the stoke and giving back to the race community that has embraced our wings and wheels.
There’s still one title former Springbok Bob Skinstad hasn’t claimed… This isn’t a stadium victory. No crowds, no ceremony, no easy applause. This one is fought for. Across endless gravel, through the dust, under the relentless Tankwa sun. And he’s chasing it down on a Sling Cycles Tagati. So, the question is — when he rolls up to the start line… will you be there with him?
Arrive on 28th May for the race on 29th and 30th May. Registration closes 8th May 2026. There are limited entries available so, get your tickets today!
Let’s go, Slingers.
See you on the start line—and maybe even above it!
