Story 1
The largest road cycling club in the south of Johannesburg, has once again shown that strong legs can be matched with even stronger hearts.
The 300 member Albion Wheelers Cycling Club successfully completed its Alberton to Durban Cycle Tour, a four-day, 700km endurance challenge that delivered relentless climbs, powerful camaraderie and most importantly, a meaningful purpose.
Thirty-two determined cyclists rode from Brackendowns to Durban, conquering more than 6 200m of elevation along the route.
The group raised R25 000 for the Bambanani Southdale Community Service, an NPO that is doing vital work in disadvantaged communities in the south of Johannesburg.
Tour Director Michael Hayes says the tour reflects the club’s growing commitment to giving back.
