Cycling South Africa (Cycling SA) recently unveiled a three-year partnership with the Midvaal Local Municipality, a collaboration poised to elevate cycling in southern Gauteng and solidify its status as a premier sport code.

Talking about the collaboration, MLM Mayor Peter Teixeira says: “We are delighted to welcome this exciting opportunity to partner with Cycling SA. This collaboration will not only elevate cycling in our region but also promote a culture of health and fitness. Furthermore, this collaboration positions Midvaal as the destination of choice, thereby boosting foot traffic that will support our local businesses and tourism sectors, ultimately contributing to the growth of our economy.”

This strategic alliance marks a significant milestone for Cycling SA, opening avenues for the development and promotion of cycling within the region. The focal point of this partnership is the hosting of the prestigious Cycling National Championships, where elite and amateur cyclists from across the country will converge to compete at the highest level.

As part of its commitment to delivering a world-class event, Cycling SA is reviewing all route options for the 2024 National Road and Time Trial Championships hosted by Midvaal Local Municipality.
