We have a 3rd Cyclist!!!
It’s funny to see people reactions when we tell them that we’re cycling 4,630km up Africa on single speed bikes. Some say “you’re mad!”, some say “I wish I could join you!” and then there’s Gareth Pickering who simply said: “Can I come?” Gareth has spent the last few years travelling the world and fighting…
Good Luck to Camilla for Comrades!
As if cycling 4,630km up Africa wasn’t enough of a challenge, Cam decided to include the 89km Comrades Ultra Marathon into her 2016 calendar! And yes, in case you’re wondering, the picture above is of her finishing the Full IronMan last year (that’s a 3.8km swim, 180km cycle & 42km marathon!) This Sunday morning 16,000 runners…

Interview on Cliff Central [Podcast]

Over R50,000 raised so far – Thank you!
We’ve been blown away by the generosity of people who have so willingly supported the Qhubeka charity in support of our #Joburg2Kili expedition. When we combined the donations made via GivenGain and direct EFT deposits we were thrilled to find that we’ve surpassed the half way mark of our goal to raise R100,000 for Qhubeka. The total…

We will be riding Qhubeka Buffalo bicycles as part of the #Joburg2Kili expedition. Many people have asked us what makes these bicycles different from normal road and mountain bikes so we thought we would put together this post to introduce you to these bicycles. So what is Qhubeka Buffalo Bicycle? The Qhubeka Buffalo bicycle is a…
Meet our Jeep Support Crew – Bryan and Bobby
This expedition would not be possible without a great support team who’ll be keeping us safe and helping to run things smoothly. Many of the roads which will be cycled don’t have a wide shoulder and other roads in East Africa have so many potholes that the trucks end up driving off the verge rather…
Interview with the Randburg Sun
We recently met up with Neo Phashe from the Randburg Sun for an interview about our expedition. Although we were a bit nervous for the interview, she was truly interested in what we’re trying to achieve and she posted this great article on the Randburg Sun local community newspaper site.

This special somebody is Garron Mosley. Garron recently celebrated his birthday and generously asked all his family and friends to make a…
How bicycles can change lives
As part of our #Joburg2Kili expedition we are raising funds for Qhubeka, which is the World Bicycle Relief’s non-profit organisation in South Africa. Qhubeka is an Nguni word that means “to carry on”, “to progress”, “to move forward” which is exactly what they aim to do by giving bicycles in return for work done to improve communities, the…
