CYCLISTS FROM BURGERSFORT EMBARK ON A JOURNEY TO CAPE TOWN TO RAISE FUNDS

“We’re not forcing anyone to donate. Those who feel they can’t let them skip. Don’t command negativity. We’ve seen all the comments, and we’ve decided to continue with our trip. What’s hurtful is that our own people from Burgersfort are the ones spreading negative vibes.”

Despite the challenges, the cyclists remain committed to their mission, inspired by their motto: “No pain, No gain.” Before embarking on their journey, they prayed for strength and guidance, leaving their families behind with a sense of purpose.

As they continue their journey to Cape Town, their message of hope and unity is resonating with people from all walks of life. Their remarkable journey serves as a testament to the power of the human spirit and the impact that can be made when individuals come together with a shared purpose.
