“We are pleased that Graham will still be able to take part in the Totalsports Challenge this coming weekend”, says

Willie Du Plooy, KTM Bike Industries.  "We at KTM Bike Industries understand the hard work, training and sacrifice that goes into preparing for an event such as the Totalsports Challenge.  Being the official bike partner to this event, when we heard about the unfortunate incident where Graham lost his bike, we just had to help him out for the weekend.  We are very happy that he will now be completing the 25km mountain bike discipline on a KTM mountain bike.  We wish Graham and everyone participating all the best”.

Graham will be completing the 50km road bike (from Gordon’s Bay to Kleinmond) and the 25km mountain bike discipline, while Simone will complete the 13km road run and 9km beach run.
