We invite you to partner with Qhubeka and Dimension Data on Sunday 20 November when the Telkom 947 Cycle Challenge will once again shut down some of the busiest roads on the continent to give cyclists of all abilities the chance to take over the city, on two wheels.
It’s a tough route, but the cyclists who take up the challenge are tougher. Beyond the physical challenge, many will be riding for a purpose and making a difference to others through their ride.
We invite you to join us, as we work towards our vision of a world where mobility is no longer a barrier to education, healthcare or economic opportunity.
Choose Qhubeka as your purpose
Qhubeka is a non-profit that helps people move forward and progress by giving bicycles in return for work done to improve
communities, the environment or academic results. Having a bicycle changes lives by increasing the distance people can
travel, what they can carry, where they can go and how fast they can get there.
We invite you to ride for Qhubeka on 20 November 2016. Mobilise people with bicycles by entering Joburg’s biggest cycling event and raise funds for Qhubeka.
The first 50 riders to donate R2 850 will each receive a Team Dimension Data for Qhubeka cycling jersey.*
