Cape Town, South Africa- The first IGSA sanctioned event of the 2010 season will get underway next Saturday, March 27-28 near Durbanville, South Africa. The Fair Cape Downhill Challenge is returning to the schedule after a one year hiatus. The event has been granted IGSA National level status.
The road is located about 10 minutes away from Durbanville and was first discovered in April 2006.
