Dear WWF Friends,
This is reminder to all the cycling enthusiasts among you! If you have not yet joined the WWF Panda Peloton to Ride for Nature in the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge, DO SO NOW!
Official entries to enter the race close 1 October 2012!
On Sunday 18 November thousands of spandex-clad cyclists will line up at the Waterfall Country Estate in Johannesburg to take part in the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge. Will you be one of them?
We already know that you’re a nature-lover, but if you’re a cyclist too, we’d love to invite you to join our Panda Peloton at the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge in November. If you’re not a cyclist, why not take up the challenge, set some goals and put yourself out there – being part of the Panda Peloton will give you a chance to pedal for the planet – and that’s a pretty good incentive!
2 easy steps to get involved
Step 1: Enter the the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge; do so now.
Step 2: Then, click here to sign up for the Panda Peloton by following the simple steps on the WWF website.
What’s in it for you?
Being part of the Panda Peloton secures you an early start time (between 08:15 and 08:35) and means that you get to ride with fellow supporters on the day. You will also receive a very classy WWF Panda cycling shirt, made by K-Way.
So how can you help WWF- South Africa?
We’d love you to use your ride as an opportunity to raise awareness and funds for WWF’s vital conservation work in South Africa. By joining the Panda Peloton, each rider commits to raising at least R1 000 for WWF (R300 of this in the form of a non-refundable deposit payable by 30 September 2012).
To make things easy and to add an element of competition, WWF will set up a profile for you on GivenGain, a fundraising website, through which you will be able to raise money along with other activists. Plus you will receive great fundraising tips as well as expert training and nutritional info so you’re well prepared for your big day!
There’s more information on the site, or for specific questions, email cycle@wwf.org.za. So what are you waiting for? Go enter! And if you already have, click here to join the Panda Peloton!
See you on the 18th of November!
The Panda Peloton team
