THIS IS OUR CHALLENGE TO YOU, AS AN INDIVIDUAL OR COMPANY TO TAKE PART IN THIS YEARS ULTIMATE CYCLING ADVENTURE. RIDE THE KRUGER AND HELP THOSE IN NEED!

The aim of the race is to raise funds for the widows and orphans of South African police officers who lost their lives in the line of duty.
All funds raised will go to support the education of and a monthly income for these families. Beneficiaries will include the WOF as well as SAPSET.

Ride in the Kruger National Park in Mpumalanga. Enjoy an ultimate and cosy bush experience overnight. Enjoy game viewing, bush fires and the magic of the Kruger National Park.

We have limited the number of riders to 60 maximum and as the name suggests, some of South Africa’s best-known South African sporting icons have thrown their weight behind this initiative. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to cycle alongside the likes Doug Rider, Mark Boucher, Kevin Peterson, Lucus Radebe, Penny Heyns… ( Final 2019 Icons list to be announced)

The African Icons Invitational is therefore also a leadership opportunity, as each of our icons will also be the after-dinner speaker at each of the towns that we sleep over in as we make our way through the route.
