When preparation comes to life

The Old Mutual go2sea is a multi-day mountain bike stage ride from Clarens to the KwaZulu-Natal coast, taking place from 10–17 September 2026 and covering approximately 600 km.

Today, he continues to tackle challenging rides with a prosthetic leg, proving that preparation can make all the difference.
