ANSW Photo Credits: The Roof. The Mother of Hard Enduro. The Motul Roof of Africa has earned the title ‘The Mother of Hard Enduro’ through the demands it makes of competitors and the onus it places on being well-prepared before heading into the Maloti Mountains. It is precisely the challenging nature of the Roof that has made it such a prestigious event. The opportunity to ride the Mountain Kingdom is a privilege, but the altitude, terrain and weather can all be unforgiving. That said, we also strive to make the Roof as inclusive as possible. That’s why we introduced the Iron Class this year, to give ‘weekend warriors’ the opportunity to take on the same trails as their heroes. The 2021 Motul Roof of Africa was perhaps one of the toughest in history, and demanded exceptional levels of perseverance, commitment and even sacrifice from competitors. The number of finishers shows just how challenging the conditions were for riders in every class, from seasoned professionals to amateurs attempting the Roof for the first time. Some aspects of the experience were entirely outside our control, but we did our best at all times to be agile and flexible, and make adjustments in the face of the extreme weather. We were all tested and had to make decisions to ensure the safety of the riders, often at very short notice. With each edition of the Roof, lessons are learned, and we are committed to applying these learning points to future editions of the event. After each Roof, we undertake a thorough review of every component of the race, and constantly seek to improve the experience for riders, support crews and (where they can attend) spectators. www.blackrockstudio.co.za www.zcmc.co.za www.actioninmotion. photofrog.co.za The Roof means something different to each person, and we’re very conscious that as the organisers, we are the custodians of many dreams. We will always hold true to our pledge to deliver the best possible event, with the correct balance between excitement and safety, challenge and achievement. This year, the unprecedented rainfall tipped those balances further than we would normally wish for, and we would like to pay tribute to the courage and determination of everyone involved. We believe that every rider can be truly proud of themselves, no matter whether they finished or not. It is our sincere hope that you will all return next year, when we look forward to delivering an edition of the Roof that draws on the experiences of 2021 whilst staying true to the legend of The Mother of Hard Enduro – a legend that was underscored this year in the most uncompromising of ways. Until then, ride safe, Charan Moore Motul Roof of Africa Route Director and Manager of Live Lesotho SY AS RH HY AP BL
