Ride Into 2026 with Rustenburg Cycling Club

Platinum Weekly newspaper | Rustenburg – As the festive season fades into memory, January arrives with something powerful: a fresh start and a hunger for new challenges. According to Rustenburg Cycling Club (RCC) chairperson Vaughan Townsend, there’s no better way to harness that New Year energy than by getting back on your bike — or climbing on for the very first time.

Cycling isn’t just a sport; it’s an adventure that rewards you with fitness, freedom and friendships. Whether your passion lies in road cycling, mountain biking, gravel grinding or even E-biking, RCC offers a welcoming space to ride, grow and challenge yourself.

“If you’re looking for a New Year’s resolution, this is it,” says Townsend. “Join our group rides or create your own. Ride a few kilometres or push yourself to extreme distances – whatever suits you. A ride is always better than no ride.”

Rustenburg Cycling Club proudly caters for all disciplines and all levels. From relaxed, social spins to competitive racing, there’s a group waiting for you. Riding with others not only makes cycling safer and more motivating, it turns every pedal stroke into a shared experience filled with encouragement, laughter and achievement.

Your bike — and your future cycling buddies — will thank you.
