“This is a coastal event with a great track record… who wouldn’t want to perform at such a show, let alone such a dream location!?” commented Brent le Riche. “KZN spectators always get right into the vibe and are always ready for some daredevil motorsports!”

King Donut

Yamaha South Africa’s brand ambassador, Alfred Matamela – AKA King Donut – will put on a must-see performance burning rubber in his signature smoking style.

“Last year, I rode the Yamaha MT10, and this year spectators will get to watch me on the incredible Yamaha R1,” said King Donut, explaining that this is the bike ridden by Yamaha Moto GP racer, Maverick Vinales.  “I enjoy participating in the annual South Coast Bike Fest™ because it’s such a great place to watch upcoming talent. It’s a festival I look forward to every year! The past experiences of performing here has been life changing and I am honoured to be able to work with such amazing people.”
