GO!Durban
Founded in 2016, the GO!Durban Academy has grown into South Africa’s largest cycling development programme, empowering more than 1,000 young people between the ages of 6 and 18 across Inanda, Cornubia, Chesterville, Wentworth, KwaDabeka, and KwaMashu. The Academy offers free cycling training, academic support, and life-skills development, positioning cycling not only as a sport but as a sustainable and accessible mode of transport within the broader Integrated Public Transport Network.
A strong emphasis on safety underpins all Academy activities. Comprehensive training programmes equip both youth and community members with essential cycling competencies, including correct helmet use, basic bike maintenance, and critical road-safety awareness. Regular workshops ensure bicycles remain roadworthy, with particular attention given to fully functional brakes, lights, and tyres, as well as the use of reflective gear to enhance visibility.
By promoting a culture of safety, confidence, and responsible cycling, the GO!Durban Academy enables young riders to navigate roads securely—whether participating in community events such as the Mandela Day Group Ride or commuting in their daily lives. Through this holistic approach, the Academy continues to build healthier, more active communities while advancing safe, sustainable mobility in eThekwini.
