The two-day celebration will include a group ride out of Cape Town to Barrydale on the 24th of March. On Saturday, the Mad Hatter’s Royal Ball will host a live band, a prize giving and drinks. Those interested will receive a Royal Passport to Barrydale, which will provide specials at selected establishments, as well as serve as the entry to the Royal Ball. Prices start at R150. Book your tickets here.
RETZA also offers day passes to travelers looking to explore the Cape Peninsula. As part of the package, riders will receive a Royal Enfield Classic 500 (500cc), perfect for both on- and off-road. Clothed in a post war styling, each unique model promises to be the most coveted in Royal Enfield history.
The itinerary starts with coffee and snacks at the RETZA Cafe and shop in Slat River/Woodstock, which doubles as the pick up and drop off point of motorcycles as well as a workshop for maintenance and adjustments. The ride kicks off through the Southern Suburbs into Muizenberg.
From there, the ride moves along the coast via Fishhoek, St James and Kalk Bay, passing through Simonstown and stopping for lunch in Cape Point. From there, the drive heads up the scenic Chapmans Peak drive into Hout Bay, Camps Bay and the V&A Waterfront. The tour ends back at RETZA’s base in Woodstock. Book your one day tour here.
