Sponsors needed for NCCV Cyclist

This is Erwin Jonker, VSO volunteer and Occupational Therapist at Opuwo Hospital. A super cyclist who will take part in a 35km bike race next weekend around Spitzkoppe Mountain, to raise funds for NCCV.

Erwin comes from the Netherlands where he's used to cycling in flat, cold and wet conditions. Next Saturday he will be one of 200 participants who take to the mountain tracks to race their way ...around Spitzkoppe - the terrain is very arduous, challenging and rocky, with steep up-hill climbs and dangerous downhill paths. Temperatures can be as high as 40 degrees at this time of year.
