Slowbee Posted March 16, 2021 Share Where is that editor of a cycling magazine ...... can he possibly run a little segment on this and give Andrew, Anatomic Cycle Wear, Steer, Cycle Lab and Bikehub some exposure ? And I leave out Buff, only 1000 post paid up hub members get access to his sales. Rowl, Dexter-morgan, tjommies3 and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffsVintageBikes Posted March 17, 2021 Share Morning all, Just to wrap the finance portion of this thread up, here's the final amounts. Please let me know if you've donated and I've left you out. Total amount raised was R20 800 Of that amount, their existing debt to their landlord for the stolen bike was settled (R5500), their deposit on a new home was secured (R4500), bike parts & lights (on the way to them) were purchased (R1400), the Silverback was donated by Cyclelab (bloody Legends) and the balance of R9400 has just been paid to the Nyathi's as a cash blessing. How totally freaking amazing, my teeth are getting cold from smiling at this amazing gesture from all involved.

Maniax Posted March 17, 2021 Share Thanks to you guys for arranging all of this. So cool to watch it unfold. Socks... it may not be Versus but we have a load of Bike Hub socks we can offer. No kiddies sizes unfortunately, but we've got 4-7 and 8-11. Do we know Mr Nyati's t-shirt size? I'd be happy to send some up to them directly or perhaps to Andrew? You got socks?!

Muttley Posted March 17, 2021 Share Guys,Can we dedicate this in the merit of our buddy Cois making a complete recovery? I really think it would mean a lot to him, knowing that we've all done good by others in merit of his good health. tjommies3, BigDL, TheoG and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Steer Posted May 24, 2021 Share Just a small follow up... Got a call from Ricky last week and everything is going really well with the Nyathi clan. Ricky is loving his bike and putting in many good miles - even riding socially when he can. Queen has also found work, so things certainly on the up for them. They've been really busy, but just wanted tore-iterate their thanks to us all. Was really great to hear from them I must say. We did a really good thing here as a community - real change, for real people, in the most challenging of times.

Andrew Steer Posted January 18, 2022 Share Just an update from Queen, they are all doing great and Ricky is still riding up a storm on his bike. Have been chatting to Martin (who sponsored his insurance for the bike for the year) and I want to push on the cover for another year just to make sure he's safe out there... maybe if all goes well he won't even be commuting in a years time. I've told Martin he has done more than his share already, so if anyone else wants to chip in with me towards covering the insurance for the year, just drop me a pm. We're going to keep it on Martins insurance for simplicity, but I will just transfer a lump sum to him for the year at the end of Feb Thanks again everyone Rowl, BaGearA, BuffsVintageBikes and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can also add a contribution once we're through Janu-worry 😁 BigDL, Vetplant and Andrew Steer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R250 x 4 at this stage... BuffsVintageBikes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
