Manqoba Madida is of South Africa's brightest young BMX stars. He has an amazing opportunity to go train at the World Cycling Centre in Switzerland which is the home and training facility of World Champions Sifiso Nhlapo and Stephanie Hernandez and Road Racers Chris Froome and Daniel Teklehaimanot.
Manqoba hails from the local township boarding the Giba Gorge BMX facility, and coach Tyrone Johns (former W1) spotted his talent from a young age, and though development funding provided by the club and KZN Development they have moulded the young rider into one of our next Olympic hopefuls.
We are raising funds to get him flights and visa's to and from Switzerland and to and from the BMX World Championships in America in July.
We are needing to fund this ourselves and looking for any assistance from our Cycling Community to stand together and support our young riders on the chance of a life time.
From Manqoba, and the team behind him we appeal to you all, every single Rand, Dollar, Pound will make an incredible difference, and get this driven young man one step closer to his goal.
