It is great to have everyone involved in this year’s aQuellé Tour Durban
Please note the following general information that I hope will assist you in your planning on Sunday 27th April 2025.
The best parking area is at the Sun Coast Casino complex and entrants can then take a short ride to the start area which will be at NMR Avenue. The parking area is accessible from Snell Parade and the start chutes will be accessible only from the Snell Parade side to avoid congestion at the start line at NMR.
Note: In some cases, the times printed on race pack envelopes are not correct. Please use the following as the correct guideline.

There are 5 x refreshment stations in total on the route, and at all stations, riders will have access to aQuellé still water and aQuellé flavoured sparkling water, bananas, chocolates and sweets.
Riders will be able to decant product into their own bottles – cups will not be provided at the refreshment stations.
There will once again be mechanical support for all riders provided by Farhad Sheikh and his team from Peerless Cycle World. Should you receive assistance and any spares from the team on the road, you will be invoiced by Peerless after the event.
The event finish village will be on the beach promenade alongside the Kings Park pool and this is where the post event drinks and medals will be distributed, and where clubs and schools can erect gazebos if desired.
Food and drinks vendors will also be in the area.
Every effort will be made to ensure that the post event prizegiving takes place as soon as possible after the completion of the main races and will be dependent on the availability of the final and signed off results.
Have an enjoyable experience and a safe ride
