ARGUABLY Pinetown’s trendiest couple, Mike and Win Wheeler have done it again and created another fashion hit in celebration of the 125th running of ‘Africa’s greatest race’, the Vodacom Durban July.
The fashion legends say it was the introductory paragraph to this year’s theme, Birds of Feather, that inspired their outfit designs.

“Since the theme was announced I have spent a few hours each day putting together the outfits. And, even though we are not going to be able to be there in person, this has been our passion as a couple for 26 years. I really do take my hat off to the team at Gold Circle for keeping the fashion events alive and kicking,” said Mike.
Following President Ramaphosa’s national address on Sunday, 27 June, during which South Africa was moved to an adjusted Level 4 lockdown, Gold Circle confirmed the Vodacom Durban July race day will go ahead on Saturday, 3 July.
