Keep Going

Ride the races you were going to ride anyway, and turn your kilometres into weekly TrailTherapy sessions for young South Africans facing depression and anxiety.

Why ride for this

Every rider knows the moment the ride gets hard and something in you decides to keep going. That is the exact skill TrailTherapy builds in young people facing depression and anxiety, one weekly session at a time. Ride your event in Pedal For Good colours and your kilometres fund the bikes, facilitators and sessions where that skill gets built. You were never just riding.

TrailTherapy

A trauma-informed cycling programme that builds resilience, emotional regulation, and agency in young people facing depression and anxiety.

How it works

Race entry happens on the event’s own site. We do not sell it and we do not control it. For the Cape Epic and the Cape Town Cycle Tour we are an official charity partner, which means we hold guaranteed entries and can offer you one.

Fundraising happens on GivenGain. You start your own project in aid of Pedal For Good and we help you set it up, write it and share it.

We do the rest. Pedal For Good colours, a story kit that tells your network why you are riding, and a team total that climbs with every rand.

Participation in measurement requires caregiver consent and the young person’s own assent, with separate media release forms. Children appear in photographs on this site only where that release is on file.

Riding as a company?

A five-rider corporate team is a partnership, with its own page.

If you are not riding this year, every other way to back the programme is on the Support Our Work page.
