Celebrate the Bicycle with Overberg MTB Events and Trails End on the 2nd, 3rdand 4thof October
Overberg MTB Events in association with Trails End are inviting riders to celebrate the history of the Bicycle. The industry of bicycling has evolved over years and becoming one of the most popular sports in the world. Not only are people from all ages able to participate in various disciplines, but cycling has become a way of life for many people. How wonderful will it be if South Africa can become a country where the bicycle can be used as a means of transportation.
In these uncertain and challenging times, let’s stay positive and give energy to the things in life that makes the world a better place, and create opportunity for the future.
We support the initiative and creativity of the Founder of Trails End and company, to launch a bike museum and create more awareness to the whole concept of cycling.
(Pieter Silberbauer, owner and founder of Trails End):
