  1. Anyone know if Nic Dlamini is still racing? I follow him on socials and seems like he is still riding, but on a Trek, so can’t still be with Doug Ryders new team. He is a talented rider, so hope he still manages to get a pro contract somewhere.
  2. If you haven't seen this take a look. Ps. if this has already been posted apologies.
  3. I need a whole lot of help please. At the beginning of November this year I am planning to ride (as fast as I can) across the width of South Africa in order to raise funds for Qhubeka. I would really appreciate any help regarding the route, weather or charity tips. This is the route i have planned so far: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/16299606
  4. Came across this comp: Register to ride any distance, on any bicycle, at any time, any where over the four days and contribute to our #BicyclesChangeLives campaign, supporting Team Dimension Data for Qhubeka in their effort to fund 5000 bicycles so that just as many people can gain access to schools, healthcare and economic opportunity Up for grabs either: A trip for two to Team DD's Training camp in Cape Town OR Omar Fraile's 2016 Cervelo S5 More info here: https://qhubeka5000.org/
  5. On Saturday 24 June, 2017, I'm riding 100 Miles on Zwift at Cycle Lab Fourways to raise awareness and funds for Qhubeka. More than half-a-million kids walk for more than a hour a day to get to school. A Qhubeka Buffalo Bike has been proven to improve attendance and focus and therefore results for kids who receive them. Kids earn their bikes through the Study to Learn programme. The details are here: http://qhubeka.org/2013/?page_id=962 Please support my project. I've committed to raising the funds for 4 bikes. They cost just R 2,850 each. It's really easy to donate. Just click on this link to GivenGain https://www.givengain.com/ap/100IndoorMilesforBikes/ Any donation will be gratefully appreciated. And, you can have the dubious pleasure of coming to Cycle Lab on 24 June to watch me ride my 100 Miles. Thanks Hubland. I know you'll help me out.

  19. Mark Cavendish appears to be heading toward MTN-Qhubeka for the 2016 season, according to cycling agents. The South African team could be the most logical spot this late in the transfer season, and it already has sprinters onboard to create a support train. The 30-year-old Brit is considered one of the best sprinters in cycling. He collected 26 stage wins in the Tour de France, a win in Milano-Sanremo, and the 2011 world championship title in Copenhagen. French newspaper L’Equipe named him the best Tour de France sprinter ever. After three years with Belgium’s Etixx-Quick-Step team, he is due to change teams. Manager Patrick Lefevere said that he does not want to support Cavendish’s bid to ride the omnium in the 2016 Olympics, and several reports linked him to MTN if the money is available.
