The largest timed cycling event in the world,the Cape Argus Pick ’n Pay Cycle Tour is taking place this Sunday the 14th of March around our most beautiful Southern Peninsula in Cape Town.
The grueling 109km will pose great challenges for the 35 000+ participants,young and old alike. There are many children facing greater challenges on a daily basis.
I have therefore set myself the challenge to complete the Argus Cycle Tour not once,but twice on the day to raise funds for children in need. That will be slightly more than 218km! (Lance Armstrong will also be riding here,wonder if he will do it twice on the day?)
All funds raised will be donated to The Chaeli Champaign
The Chaeli Champaign is a registered Non-Profit Organization (NPO 037338)
striving to promote the rights of children with disabilities to include them in every aspect of community life.
In the past five years they have provided assistive devices to over 300 children and have implemented their physiotherapy programs in four communities.
After visiting Zelda,Chaeli and their team in Plumstead and seeing first hand the amazing work they do and accomplish,I knew I had to do something. They need our help! All the children that they reach,needs our help!
Please support this worthy cause. Donations of any amount will be greatly appreciated,but since my challenge is set at 218km it will be amazing to receive some sponsors per km. Let your imagination run wild!
For donation details have a look at the facebook group
Doing the Argus Cycle Tour Twice (x2) for Charity
I have had the great pleasure of sharing the road with 7 time Tour de France winner,Lance Armstrong,for just a couple of minutes while out cycling earlier this week and uploaded some photos to the facebook group.
To all those cycling on Sunday,have fun and be safe!
