The Fynbos Gonzo 13 Peaks Challenge 5 Saturdays. 13 Peaks. One Epic Personal Challenge. Starts Sat, 25 July - Signal Hill The 13 Peaks Challenge was born from a notebook doodle — @ryansandes linking up his favourite peaks across Table Mountain and the Cape Peninsula into one epic route. No entry fee. No official route. No prizes. Only an official 13 Peaks badge handed to you by @ryansandes himself. Starting 25 July, we're taking on the full @13_peaks Challenge as a community — broken into 5 Saturday segments, so anyone can join the journey. Together we'll cover the peaks in order, from Signal Hill all the way south to Chapmans Peak & Muizenberg Peak, before looping back north to finish where we started. Massive thanks to @fynbos.money for backing this entire challenge with us, Saturday after Saturday. Their kiff team suggested this idea and we all decided to do it! THE JOURNEY Segment 1 - Sat 25 July - Signal Hill, Lions Head & Maclear's Beacon Segment 2 - Sat 1 Aug - Groot Kop, Judas Peak, Little Lions Head & Suther Peak Segment 3 - Sat 8 Aug - Chapmans Peak & Noordhoek Peak Segment 4 - Sat 15 Aug - Muizenberg Peak & Constantia Berg Segment 5 - Sat 22 Aug - Klassenkop & Devils Peak, finishing back at Signal Hill HOW IT WORKS -No sign-up. Anyone can just rock up and join, every Saturday. -Record your runs to Strava or your watch/phone -Peaks are summited in order, 1 through 13. -Missed a Saturday? Catch it up during the week, whenever suits you. -Distance options every week so you can choose your challenge - shorter route options available if you're not chasing the full badge. -Self-navigational. No team leaders, no pace groups. Run at your own pace, with your Gonzo crew alongside or on the same trails Lace up. Put on your brave face. Let's go get all 13. IMPORTANT NOTES -Don't be a chop, and keep safe -This is not a race or an event. This is a personal challenge, done together, every Saturday. -You need to be self-sufficient - nutrition, hydration & appropriate trail running gear for every segment. -WSAR Western Cape Emergency Phone: 021 937 0300 -You are engaging in all Gonzo activities voluntarily and entirely at your own risk.

GONZO JULY CALENDAR Shit-a-brick, trail season is in full swing with races, recce’s and events on the up. Well, the good folk at Gonzo thought, "well, why not throw some more into the mix for good measure”. Thank us later. FIRST, FOR SOME NEWS: -To avoid the wee discomfort of a potential lawsuit, we have changed the logo, of which the doggo image, aka Hux, started becoming synonymous with Gonzo. @thechroniclesofboredom helped create the logo featuring a new Hux, the Gonzo Lab. Post on this coming out soon.  -Our lifestyle apparel range goes into manufacturing next week: hoodie, sweater, vintage cap, retro cap, t-shirts, and box t-shirt all from @soli_capetown .Retro caps by @yoyos_za -Also, @versussocks will start putting together our Gonzo socks - it looks sick! -The 5 stage @fynbosmoney Gonzo 13 Peaks starts 25 July - we are breaking down the famous @13_peaks into 5 consecutive Gonzo Saturdays. @ryansandes , will join us for a run or two. Get your famous 13 Peaks Badge. 4 July HOUT BAY We are collabing with our twinsies crew, @trail.leopards We join them in their backyard at their caffeinated watering hole @southyeaster 11 July CAMPS BAY In preparation for the incredible @thecogmans.run in Montagu, we are tapering on the ‘taper trail’ that is Missing Link. Be sure to sign-up for Cogmans known for it's vibe and community. See you there! 18 July  MUIZENBERG We are in DAWG country @muizenbergtraildawgs , so watch your haunches, especially at their local pub after, which we call the Abyss of Regret. You will find out why the local trail runners are such strong  & hardy climbers? 25 JULY SIGNAL HILL Stage 1 of the @fynbosmoney Gonzo 13 Peaks.
