#7 An Epic Route Reflection
In Episode 7 of the rebooted Diverge Podcast Seamus Allardice talks you through the 2025 Absa Cape Epic route, after riding the route recce. As is usually the way of it, he didn’t complete every stage - because he came in unfit and exhausted - but if you’d like to avoid withdrawing from the race you should probably listen up and start training, hard. Without long passes, aside from the final climb of the Queen Stage, the route is punctuated by 2-3 kilometre long 10% average gradient challenges. These along with the amount of singletrack sap not just the legs but your whole body. So take a listen to a quick overview of what to expect.

First Ascent Starlight II Tent | Info Video
Hey what is the name of the trip you did, where does it start and end? :)
Im looking at a Katabatic 3 tent or a ve 25 north face...does the eddie bauer tent hold warmth inside thanks man
Not free standing ,so no pitching on hard surfaces (unless tied) or under freeway tunnels etc
Thank you.
I just bought the Atlas...same tent just green
p̶r̶o̶m̶o̶s̶m̶ 😚
mr! Yeah-unusua vlog!see ya!,😉
Thanks for the review on this. Can you get away with not buying a separate ground sheet?
But you say nothing about the wonderful side entrances. Not as claustrophobic as the Starlight, which I have and now regret. Adventure biker.
I think You pointed out the highlights liked it...with the AirPods Pro on sound was ok without definitely on the silent side...;-( the new tires in 2020 and 2021 are different as well.
Thanks for the review! Opted for the Starlight 2 over the Helio. It has more space and costs about R1000 less. The Helio is 4 season but I find this much better value for money of you are not camping in the snow!
Great video .... thanks 👍👍
Can barely hear you, audio is very low.
Good review, thanx
Bought myself a Baviaans branded Gilet and that definitely saved my life on race day. Thanks for the quality clothing!
Where did you buy the bike?
Mega amps ,thats amazing
Great healthy meal option!!
