  4. My mini visible scholar project is coming along nicely. I have about 20 bibs and about 50 reflective waist bands for improved visibility. I am also ordered beanies to which I can attach a reflective strip that will keep their ears warm and make them visible.

  6. Thank You so much I will pop in at your shop. I will exchange the bikes for smiles. This is beyond expectation. Great stuff CWC,
  7. What we have so far!
  8. Thanx for the comments guys, I really feels great to hear that there are people/cyclist out there that shares the same passion. My plan is to take this beyond donating bikes to people and kids that are in need. I would like to look at the actual needs of communities, families, kids, scholars and orphans etc. I discovered that sometimes the need is just something to eat, something to wear, something to play with. A week ago I cycled from Paarl to Riebeeck west early morning and it was pitch dark. I had my light obviously, but I passed a small group of school kids walking in the yellowline and I could see they were terrified to walk there, cause its a busy road. They can walk next to the road but they cant see infront of them and they will be wet befor they get to school. I also passed a group of kids waiting for the schoolbus and they were also practically invisible. So immediately I saw the need for some sort of reflective wear and I know that the department handed refective gear to the kids, but that was a while ago! I plan to hand out some refective gear to some of them and I will also try to talk to the Provincial Administration official wrt proper signage at the bus stop. This sounds like a mission and that its to far fetched, but I already made a Call to the PA and purchased 15 meteres of relective strip. Now all of a sudden it doesnt seem so difficult. Thanx for reading.
  9. More pics to follow. Please let me know if you know anyone or a community we can help. If you would like to participate in such an event we would appreciate a hand or two. I you would like to donate old cycling equipment or bikes feel free.
  10. Hi There guys I am from Paarl, I own a small cycling empowerment business. I must say that I was inspired by someone on this forum and outside this forum. Well my life actually revolves around cycling and i try to cycle everyday of my life. I have a great love for bikes all shapes and sizes, cycling changed my life. I realized cycling is too big and must be shared, more people must feel what we as cyclist feel. A few months ago I donated a few of my old bikes, stock that i traded in or bikes I fixed with minimal efford and cash. I must say this was a real eye opener for me, the need was just as big as the appreciation shown. I have never seen that kind of appreciation and gratitude. I also realised that for some a bicycle would solve a few problems and for some a piece of bread or something to eat would be better. Poeple have different needs and thats when I decided to buy some food and easter eggs and sweeties. This was a big sucess story and something i would do over and over again. Well to cut a long story short. We all feel like something good, but we never action these desires or dreams and I must say that it feels good to actually share and to change someones life. Attached are a few pics of what we have done. Thanx for the inspiration.
