The weeks excitement is coming to a serious halt with final preparations coming in play as teams ready themselves for tomorrow's Expedition Africa 2018 start.

Race village is bustling with excitement as athletes from all over the world gather for this year's Expedition Africa.

Kinetic Events have partnered with SPOT satellite tracking for the second year in a row, a tracking system that features satellite tracking, SOS button and emergency messaging which enhances each team’s’ safety and makes the dot-watching element of adventure racing more efficient and reliable.

It's that time of year again, where athletes from all over the globe ready themselves for Africa's grueling Adventure Racing World Series 500km event - Expedition Africa, commencing this Sunday, 20 May 2018.

A relatively new concept in Adventure Racing is where each team brings a media representative to blog, photograph, tweet, video, etc etc about their team. Essentially, these guys and girls become the eyes and ears for family, friends, sponsors and just interested parties for those back home.

The final countdown to 2018's Expedition Africa - Namaqua West Coast is officially underway as race organisers, Stephan and Heidi Muller undertake their final preparations that make this 500km Adventure Racing World Series event, an adventure race of a lifetime.
