Namaqua Wines cyclists take on the Cape Argus Cycle Tour, and finish with big smiles!

We’re so proud of our Namaqua Wines cyclists! All 18 of them finished the 2012 Cape Argus Cycle Tour on Sunday 11 March, and for many of them it was their first time taking on the gruelling 109 kilometres. To add to this success story – one of our trusty cyclists conquered the tour with a prosthetic leg, proving that nothing is impossible when you put your mind to it! These cyclists won’t be resting in winter - they will be taking on various Mountain Bike Challenges. We wish them all the best with this, and know that they will make us proud!
