The Virgin Active Ride Joburg hosted by the City of Johannesburg, is more than just a cycling race – it’s a platform for participants to accomplish something greater than themselves. Whether achieving a personal goal; fundraising for charity or helping those who need a boost en route, this event allows participants and supporters alike to reach out, support each other, and make themselves and the whole of Joburg proud.
Why not commit to tackling the challenging 97km route for a cause that is greater than yourself? Since its inception in 2011, the Ride for a Purpose initiative has helped countless charities raise over R103 million, enabling these organisations to continue the good work they do, touching lives across the nation.
A Charity Team is made up of 10 or more entries to help raise funds for the charity. Only registered charities may use the Virgin Active Ride Joburg as a platform to raise funds and awareness for their cause. Registrations of new charity teams close on 29th September 2024.
READ MOREIf you’d like to ride for or donate funds to a registered charity, choose a registered charity and contact the team leader directly for information on how to become a part of their charity. Charity entries close on 29th September 2024.
You will need to use a promo code from the charity team leader to link you to their team when entering online.
