Spring family day ride set to get Durban moo-ving

Time to get moo-ving Durban! The Cows will join forces with CHOC and Pick n Pay Hypermarket Durban North to stage a Spring Day Family Ride on Saturday 2 September.

CYCLING enthusiasts will celebrate the onset of spring on Saturday, 2 September with a Spring Day Family Ride in Durban that will also channel its energy into a fundraiser for The Cows and their ongoing drive to support the CHOC Childhood Cancer Foundation.

Starting and finishing the Pick n Pay Hypermarket Durban North, the ride gets under way at 6.30am and riders are encouraged to come dressed up to celebrate Spring Day. The ride will be carefully managed by the organising team from Cycle Specialists, ensuring that all the road crossings on the out-and-back course to La Lucia are closed to traffic when the group of riders pass.

The Cows have raised over R29 million for CHOC in the past nine years, and have set a lofty target of R10 million in 2017 to celebrate their tenth anniversary.

There will also be a short Kids’ Fun Ride on a safe track in the parking lot of the Pick n Pay Hypermarket Durban North. All riders should wear cycling helmets to be able to participate. Participating children will also be eligible for lucky draw prizes after the ride.

There is no pre-entry. Registration can be done at the Pick n Pay Hyper Durban North between 3pm and 7pm on Friday afternoon, 1 September or from 5.30am on Saturday morning, 2 September.
