CALVIN Beneke has pipped the field to win the Dis-Chem Ride for Sight challenge.
Over 6 000 cyclists took part in this year’s edition, which was held in partnership with the City of Ekurhuleni on Sunday February 18.
The 25-year-old, who hails from the South and rode for Telkom, came out tops in the 116km race with a time of 02:40:53.
