(TRAVPR.COM) UNITED KINGDOM - February 7th, 2013 - Nedbank Swaziland’s Imvelo MTB Classic 2013 looks set to sell-out even faster than last year’s event, which sold out in just two weeks! With only 500 entries up for grabs, make you’re there by being the first to enter on 2nd April.

The annual mountain biking competition is held every June at Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctuary and sponsored by Nedbank Swaziland and Big Game Parks. It comprises of a series of races over different distances, the longest being 64km! Of course with any great Swaziland Event, the race is followed by a fantastic party for all cyclists.

One of the most important aims of Imvelo is to raise funds for community and conservation projects. The neighbouring Hlabazonkhe School, bordering Mlilwane North in the Siphocosini district has been a project for some years now, and in addition to general assistance since 2008 (including the painting of the school, installation of gutters to capture rain water and the donation of water tanks and office equipment), Imvelo has just completed its Water Spring project which as a result currently provides the local community with clean water.
