A proposito di questo titolo
What happens when a few friends in Cape Town decide cycling shouldn’t be lonely, intimidating, or only for “serious” racers? In this episode we sit down with the founders of Let’s Ride, a fast-growing community cycling crew rolling out from Rondebosch Common every Sunday and proving that vibes, safety and belonging matter more than fancy bikes.
You’ll hear how a R300 Facebook Marketplace bib-short deal, an emotional wake-up call after losing a friend, and a 100-kg weight-loss journey all collided to spark a movement. The guys share how Let’s Ride went from four mates on a WhatsApp group in 2024 to a 20–30 rider bunch, why they keep the pace accessible (around 24–28 km/h), and how they’re creating a space where no one gets mocked for “cheap kit”, dropped on a climb, or left alone after a crash. They talk safety in numbers on Cape Town roads, the “no club kit” rule, and their dream of becoming the city’s biggest community cycling group without losing the relaxed, fun, non-FTP-obsessed culture that makes Sundays feel like therapy on two wheels.
