The organisers of Ride The Rock, Cederberg\u2019s most exciting three \u2013day multi stage mountain bike (MTB) race, are excited to welcome ISUZU as the new Title Sponsor of this much loved event.<\/p>\n

According to Michael Meyer, Director Stillwater Sport & Entertainment, organisers of the ISUZU Ride The Rock, having ISUZU onboard as the title sponsor has added additional excitement to an already much talked about event. \u201cISUZU off-road vehicles are known for their power and variety to choose from, while offering the driver a high level of comfort. These three aspects will thoroughly be put to the test in all facets of the event from route scouting and building, to the days in which the event is set up as well as on event day. Although only in its second year, the ISUZU Ride The Rock is viewed as a \u2018must do event\u2019 by many professional and social riders alike. We are truly excited to team up with ISUZU and look forward to putting on an event like no other in February 2013,\u201d says Meyer.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ISUZU brand is part of the General Motors South Africa stable and we are extremely proud and excited about this new partnership as it gives our brand a new impetus and association with lifestyle sports that fit perfectly with the ISUZU brand values and vision,\u201d says Mlungisi Nonkonyana, ISUZU Brand Manager.\t<\/p>\n
