The Guy in Pink Posted September 3, 2007 Share ChampionChip have done the right thing by Polokwane Pedallers, and will be timing their race next Saturday For Free!Thanks Colin !! (and well done Hubbers!) This is how the Polokwane Pedallers announced the event. Dear Cyclist Thank you for participating in our Road Hog race held in August 2007. You may recall that we decided to use this race as a fund raiser for Johan de Lange who lost his leg in a motor bike accident. We are happy to report that through your participation and generous contributions we raised R9 000 and paid it over to the school. the teacher who is managing this fund told us that our contribution helped a lot and they got the full R30 000 needed for his prostheses. Without your help this would not have been possible. Our next race is on 15 September 2007 and we managed to select an get a permit for a brand new route!! This is quite a challenging route with rolling hills and a few climbs. We really are exited about this race and what the route offers cyclists. A new feature is that the Christian Motorcycle Association will be patrolling the route with 15 bikes during the race to enhance your safety. ChampionChip also confirmed that they will be here to time our race. They offered to time this race free of charge to make amends for the previous race which they could not time due to unforeseen circumstances. We believe this is a great offer and look forward to them timing our race. Regards George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4feet Posted September 3, 2007 Share No doubt the sentiment bandied about on the Hub had the desired effect. Big up to Colin for making amends....in his own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mallo Posted September 3, 2007 Share Well done Colin, now if Polokwane Pedallers donate some of that chip money to a charity of choice would really round this off. All winners at end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Guy in Pink Posted September 3, 2007 Share They always do this to me, we have two events in the area on the same Day. Now I have a choice between Pedallers "Challenging route" and a 70km flat ride at the Louis Trichardt Air Force Base.I had hernia Surgery on Thursday but the "Challenging route" is very tempting. I think that I may just show support for Colin's big gesture. <?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
