Chappies vs Engen-to-Engen: SA’s Segment Wars | Big 5 Course Records — Cape Epic Hype Builds

This week on The Breakaway, we kick off with the frothiest new idea we’ve had in a while: *SA’s Segment Challenge* — Cape Town’s Chappies culture vs Joburg’s Engen-to-Engen chaos, plus a shout to Durban to send their “we kill each other weekly” segment so we can put it on the show. Then it’s straight into *Tap-Out Tuesday* energy: sub-10 obsession, perfect wind conditions, lead-out etiquette, and why “it counts” even if you didn’t do it in the ‘right’ spirit. From there we pivot to the *Big 5 by Imbuko Wines* — record-level performances, Epic implications, and why pacing + self-belief is still the ultimate cheat code. We break down the key moments, the podiums, and what it signals for the Cape Epic build-up. We also touch the *Cape Epic* shake-up that changes the race narrative overnight, plus a quick detour into road racing and the running check-in. Drop your segment suggestions (Joburg/Durban/any city), your spiciest banter, and what you want us to cover next. — 00:00 Intro + Episode 7 opens 00:24 Drift detour + tyre price madness 01:07 The “Segments Challenge” (CT vs JHB vs Durban) 03:16 Tuesday Chappies: sub-10 day recap + tactics 10:35 Joburg clapback: Engen-to-Engen vs Chappies + stats 22:20 Durban call-out: send your segment (we’ll feature it) 23:00 Big 5 MTB: Kefenga descent + race takeaways 25:22 Big 5 women’s results + what it means for Epic 31:01 Cape Epic women podium predictions 35:51 Cape Epic drama update 38:45 Big 5 men’s podium + Toyota Specialized team shout 49:47 Can Big 5 become XCM Worlds? 51:05 PPA road racing: “C-batch is the real race” + Jason’s win story 1:02:16 Running check-in + fast half marathon times 1:05:07 Next week tease: Cycle Tour week + Epic prep — Footnotes / Sources (official links) 1) Big 5 2026 recap + race dynamics: https://www.bicycling.co.za/race-news... 2) Big 5 2026 recap + women’s results + course record time: https://bikenetwork.co.za/results-rec... 3) Big 5 2026 ladies podium (Imbuko Big 5 FB post):   / 1461632195964214   4) Big 5 2026 men’s podium (Imbuko Big 5 FB post):   / 1461634282630672   5) Keegan Swenson Cape Epic withdrawal / fractured pelvis report: https://www.cyclingweekly.com/racing/...
