The rule for this year’s challenge

Each team member (cyclists and support crew) has a personal target of R15, 000 (EUR 1,000) for Refilwe, the overall goal is to raise R750,000. Each team will organize events in their region to raise funds and extending the help to the different offices Team Ireland has already came up with a few events – check them out in our “Fundraising” section Check the Hobart Enterprises Charitable Trust Facebook page to learn about the events and get live updates.

On Sunday 19 November, thousands of fellow cyclists will be riding a tough but exhilarating 94.7kms around one of Africa’s busiest cities. The ROUTE will be tough but the camaraderie from other riders, as well as the support from the Joburgers who line the street make this an unmissable and iconic event!
