#7 An Epic Route Reflection
In Episode 7 of the rebooted Diverge Podcast Seamus
Allardice talks you through the 2025 Absa Cape Epic route, after riding the route recce. As is usually the way of it, he didn’t complete every stage – because he came in unfit and exhausted – but if you’d like to avoid withdrawing from the race you should probably listen up and start training, hard. Without long passes, aside from the final climb of the Queen Stage, the route is punctuated by 2-3 kilometre long 10% average gradient challenges. These along with the amount of singletrack sap not just the legs but your whole body. So take a listen to a quick overview of what to expect.
