Together with their support we look forward to hosting one of the most exciting mountain bike weekends in the Western Cape\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re proud to launch the Fedhealth MTB Challenge,\u201d says Jeremy Yatt of Fedhealth.  \u201cPeople of all ages take up mountain biking \u2013 often when you\u2019re out on the trails, you see parents teaching their children how to ride! It has become a family sport, and that makes it a perfect sport for us to be involved with\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019d like Fedhealth to significantly strengthen our association with mountain biking,\u201d continues Yatt.  \u201cIt\u2019s not a result one achieves just by a once-off campaign, but by staying the course and ironically, in sponsorship of mountain biking, there\u2019s no finish line! But you can have leaders, and we aim to be one of those.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>EVENT INFORMATION:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Saturday, 05 September 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Start &amp; Finish Venue: Meerendal  Wine Estate<\/p>\n<p>Event: ISUZU Enduro Ride<\/p>\n<p>Event: ISUZU 5km Team Relay<\/p>\n<p>Event: ISUZU Off-Road Academy Experience<\/p>\n<p>Event: ISUZU MTB Skills Coaching Session<\/p>\n<p>Event: Fedhealth Kids Events:  500m, 1.5km and 5km<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sunday, 06 September 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Start &amp; Finish Venue: Meerendal Wine Estate<\/p>\n<p>Event: Fedhealth MTB Challenge:  15km Fun Ride<\/p>\n<p>Event: Fedhealth MTB Challenge:  +- 35km <\/p>\n<p>Event: Fedhealth MTB Challenge:  +- 60km<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>South Africa\u2019s leading medical scheme, Fedhealth, is taking their stance on family health care one step further by introducing the exciting Fedhealth MTB Challenge that will take place on Sunday, 06 September 2015 at the picturesque Meerendal Wine Estate (Durbanville) as part of the action packed ISUZU MTB Festival.
