#CTBicycleMayor had the pleasure of joining the #KhaltshaCycleAcademy girls this morning in #Khayelitsha on their #Zwift virtual ride with #RocacorbaCollective . Amazing what the power of virtual cycling has done for young girls in townships.

Help me to celebrate history by making history. I m trekking to Everest base camp and trying to raise 5300 pairs of schools shoes to benefit rural and vulnerable and needy children. Donations are accepted in cash and shoes themselves.
For primary school going kids.
