Gear Change Wines2Whales Service Package
The Wines 2 Whales 2025 is upon us.
At Gear Change, we understand the demands of a multi-stage race on both the rider and the bicycle. We are therefore offering service packages for the following events:
Chardonnay: 31 October- 2 November 2025
The Chardonnay is the first of the three FNB Wines2Whales events and focuses on the women of mountain biking as the pro racers and age group contenders are celebrated. Each year we see many of South Africa's, and often the world's, best female riders battle it out.
The Chardonnay event is also open to men's and mixed teams who are eager to experience the trails early on in the FNB W2W Switchback race period.
Shiraz: 7-9 November 2025
The Shiraz takes place over the last weekend of the race and has the reputation of taking up the pace a notch or two.
While the Chardonnay celebrates the Women's racing category, the Shiraz celebrates Men's, Mixed and Exxaro teams racing categories in addition to honouring the determination of the rest of the field as they compete in their respective age categories.
