George Bike Day!
2nd March 2024 – What an incredible day of cycling empowerment in George!
Thanks to a fantastic collaboration with Pedal Power Association, Western Cape Government, and Provincial Sustainable Transport Programme, along with the support of George Municipality and Garden Route District Municipality, we were able to host a truly memorable event.
We had the pleasure of handing over 60 bikes to 11 organisations, including neighbourhood watches, bicycle couriers, cycling clubs, and tourism organisations. It was heartwarming to see the joy and excitement on everyone’s faces as they received their new wheels!
But the fun didn’t stop there – our day was packed with mechanical training, safety workshops, and support from local vendors in Pacaltsdorp. A huge shoutout to the incredible Dylan Victor, our bicycle skills guru and MC for the event, for keeping the energy high throughout the day.
We were truly honored to have Provincial Minister of Mobility, Ricardo Mackenzie, and Provincial Minister of Community Safety and Police, Reagan Allen, grace us with their presence. Their support means the world to us as we work towards creating safer and more accessible cycling communities.
Special thanks to Luvo Bomvana and Shelly Anne for going above and beyond to make our event a success at the George Junior Traffic premises.
Here’s to many more days of pedaling towards empowerment and inclusion!
