Dear valued Schools Cycling participants, riders, schools, parents, and team managers,  the Cycle Lab MTB High School Finals are scheduled to take place on 4-5 October 2025. 

Unfortunately, the proposed venue at Michaelhouse, KZN has been changed due to: 
- Unsuitability of the current MTB-track for competition standards 
- Insufficient time to construct a new track and build additional required features/elements 
 

After duly exploring and investigating all alternative options, we are pleased to announce that Piet Retief Hoërskool in Mpumalanga, will host the event, meeting all necessary requirements. 
 

We would like to express our gratitude and sincerely appreciate Michaelhouse's efforts in providing top-class accommodations, facilities, and exceptional service to both Schools Cycling South Africa and Cycle Lab. Their dedication to delivering a high-quality experience is commendable. 
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. 
 

Best regards, Tobias Lubbe 
President - School Cycling South Africa
