2025 Momentum Medical Scheme Attakwas Extreme presented by Biogen Cadence Show

The pre-race favourite Alan Hatherly surged away from Tristan Nortje, with 40 kilometres to race in the Momentum Medical Scheme Attakwas Extreme, presented by Biogen, to win the 2025 Hell of the South title; on Saturday, 18 January. The cross-country World Champion’s first outing for Giant Factory Off Road Racing was a resounding success, as was the defence of Samantha Sanders’ 2024 crown. The Efficient Infiniti Insure rider recovered from a lost SRAM AXS battery, in the first 30 kilometres, to win the Queen of the Mountain hotspot prize as well as the women’s race.
