Quads 4 Quads riders end world’s biggest off-road ride
QASA, Quadpara Association of South Africa comes to an end at Carnival City.
The spectacular 1 000 km journey of hundreds of quads and two-wheel motorcycles comes to a roaring end on October 8 at Carnival City as part of the 14th annual Quads 4 Quads riding holiday.
This journey, all in aid of QASA, Quadpara Association of South Africa, will see people from all walks of life travelling from Ballito in KwaZulu-Natal on October 4 to Carnival City – in the dirt. Motorcycles, quads, buggies, adventure bikes and side-by-sides will join in the mass migration to raise much-needed funds.
“It is an honour for us to once again play a role in this fund-raiser for such a worthy cause,” says Michelle Smith, marketing manager at Carnival City.
This year the trail is totally different to years before and riders and their families and friends will see all things off-road, from the rolling hills of KZN to thick indigenous forests to rocky mountain passes, dams, rivers and beautiful farmlands. Approximately 250 km will be covered by each rider every day.
This journey comprises not only of a start and finish but the inclusion of an outreach in all the communities that are passed through on the ride. Started by The Adventure Company, run by Glenn Foley and Corinne Andrews, to raise funds and awareness for QASA, Quads 4 Quads has raised over R7-million for QASA. Quads 4 Quads is not a race but a fun, social, mobile family holiday for the betterment of others.
Carnival City looks forward to welcoming the riders home on October 8 and encourages the community to come down to give the riders the hero’s welcome they deserve as covering 250km for eight hours each day is a significant challenge for all able- and disabled riders.
