Wendell Posted August 12, 2013 Author Posted August 12, 2013 Breaking news.....I understand the current financial climate, so we have decided to drop the goody bags and streamline all costs to the bear minimum without dropping the standard of our event !!!!! Entries will now be R250 per rider and still whatever we make on the event will be going to CHOC. Enter on line at www.bikeabout.co.za It's still all about the children and that " cancer NEVER sleeps" see you there. Bobbo_SA and Warren911 2

Wendell Posted August 19, 2013 Author Posted August 19, 2013 The course will riden in reverse to the normal ride ie. CLOCKWISE. 7,5 km and a really nice loop. The traditional tour through the camp sites is again making for a lot of fun. When you have been close to a cancer sufferer and then think of the little children who must have such a sad view of their future, it breaks my heart and motivates me to help raise as much money for research and MEDICATION for these innocent little ones...come support a worthy cause..or just donate whatever you can afford www.GivenGain looking up my name as an activist where you can make a donation. Thank YOU!! CHOC our charity of choice.
