Community upliftment

G2C supports the Amariders, an organisation dedicated to developing and maintaining mountain bike trails in the Makhanda area. They have established over 100km of marked single-track routes for all skill levels, host regular outrides, and continue to grow the sport through guided rides and ongoing trail development.

Beyond cycling, Amariders play an active role in their community by assisting vulnerable individuals—particularly those who feel unsafe—to access essential supplies, contributing to efforts to reduce gender-based violence.

They also invest in the next generation, visiting local schools weekly to promote cycling, exercise, and healthy living, encouraging young people to stay active and make positive lifestyle choices.

Have a look at the Amariders website if you’d like to know more.

Support the Amariders initiative by donating any preloved items to benefit the local community they serve. Your contributions can be dropped off at registration or on race day, and will go directly to those in need.
