Border 1000 draws young and ‘older’

THE NFB Border 1000 cycle tour took place on Sunday, with the young, and not so young, taking part.

The race had three starting points, all covering different distances in order to accommodate cyclists of varying abilities.

The 80km started in Stutterheim, 36km in Macleantown and the 20km, for the very young, at the Python Park.
