2 of the bikes we donated this week. Casper and Norbert will now ride for free as opposed to paying for taxi fare.

Lovely stuff Nick! Kudos to you for all the efforts well done!

Built up and ready for donation. Someone's life will change this week!

If you're keen to ride for our charity in this year's Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge please enter and pay asap. We are a couple of people short to secure our charity entry and it would be a huge shame to lose this great opportunity.

 

Contact me if you need more info.

 

Thanks!

Yes for sure, as long as someone can assist with getting the bike there. At the moment I have a long waiting list, so probably get bikes to new nominees in 3-4 months.

Thanks for the reply. Basically you cover your own entry and I add you to our team. If you raise R700 or more, you get a free custom cycling jersey.

Hi Hubbers, I live in Groot Brak rivier at Pine Creek caravan park where the Attakwas finishes and I want to help a boy who lives here in the park, he is 14 years old and he walks everywhere he has to be (his current bike is a 20" and I think that one is way to small) His mom bakes from home for a income so she sends him and his sister (9 years old) everywhere to go and buy baking essentials. I would like to know if there is any way possible that we can help this boy with a 26" mtb of any sort, there is no need for a full susser or a expensive bike, just anything to help him with his daily duties. I would even buy a bike from Game but I'm a bit cash stricken to do it. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you. Bennie Gerber 0829209190 or benniegerber1@telkomsa.net or just reply to this message.

Hi hubbers, my father-in-law helped out and we got him a well looked after bike. He will get it tomorrow and I sure am excited to see his face.
