4th Annual Extreme Ride4Hunger Cycle Challenge 2019 - 6 DAY - 1000km
Helping feed the poorest communities all over the country. Entries for 2019 are now open. Starting in Kimberley Northern Cape, South Africa and ending in Cape Town Western Cape. The challenge is in its 4th year now. The aim is to raise awareness to the plight of the poor. Throughout the tour, the team stops in towns along the way and delivers food and toys to different communities along the route.
It is growing slowly but steadily, hoping to raise more funds and support every year. It is an extreme ride no doubt, but it is also about enjoying the scenes that South Africa has to offer, but most importantly about the poor.
The route takes you through big cities and tiny towns of the Karoo all the way to the beautiful city of Cape Town. Cyclists will travel roughly 160-200km per day, and then sleeping over in each town as they go along.

Thank you so much for nomination. Really appreciate it and for commenting.
It was really hard to get this going initially, but I think running into our 4th year we getting to grips with what is needed to run fairly smoothly. Meals on wheels as an organisation itself has been around for over 50 years and in need of a youthful injection. With this initiative we are trying to encourage the youth to get involved thereby keeping it alive for another 50 years.
Thank you again
My pleasure! (:
