M&G Investments Boost Bar
The last 10 kilometres in most bicycle races can be tough, you have run out of water and you’re dreaming of those SAB beers on the finish line.
As you click through the gears you see an Oasis in the distance … it can’t be the end as you still have at least 10kms until your Red Cherry Events tented village comes into view. In fact, you have arrived at the M&G Investments Boost Bar, the music is pumping and the freshly prepared iced coffee is flowing on this warm summers day!
You top up the caffeine levels and realise that home is just around the corner.
Free beer and wine in the chill zone
There is no place like the Red Cherry Chill Zone to recover in after a beautiful day on the bike.
With soft bean bags to lounge on while comparing your Strava efforts with your riding buddies, SAB beers and a selection of wine close at hand, and brandy on the last night – free of charge and always at optimal temperature.
