This is the 13th year for the 94.7 Cycle Challenge with a record entry of almost 30 000 cyclists - including top cyclists from South Africa and abroad - expected to participate in 2009 in Joburg's biggest cycling event.

Cycle Challenge

This year, Momentum has joined forces and the good news is that there are bigger and better prizes and recognition up for grabs for this year's top cyclists - R275 000 cash prizes and gold coins worth over R80 000 sponspored by SA Gold Coin Exchange.

A new feature this year is the introduction of winners' jerseys - the winner of the men’s and women’s races get yellow jerseys, while polka dot jerseys will go to the King and Queen of the mountains, sprinters will be awarded green jerseys and best young U23 riders will receive white jerseys.
