Cyclists enjoy Jingle Bell fun

Date: 09 December 2016 By: News Correspondent

Residents of Louis Trichardt were treated to a colourful display of Christmas cheers when a large number of local cyclists took to the street as part of the Soutpansberg Cycling Club’s annual Jingle Bell Toy Ride.

To take part in the ride, cyclists had to decorate their bikes with Christmas lights or any other joyful decoration, as well as “pay” an entrance fee consisting of a soft toy or present. Toys could also be dropped off beforehand by residents at several drop-off points in town, with the cyclists then cycling to each of these drop-off points to collect the toys.

The toys will be distributed to less fortunate children this Christmas with the help of pre-selected local charities.  “We want to thank each and every one who supported the initiative.

Thank you also to Thompson’s Motors for supplying support vehicles on the evening, as well as residents who waited along the route to support us and hand over gifts. You all helped to put a smile on many children’s faces this festive season,” said the club.
