24 Feb 2012 PPA safe cycling campaign: First winner
A delighted Mr Aaron Hendrickse took delivery of his brand-new Giant road bicycle this morning. Mr Hendrickse won the bicycle after picking up a bumper sticker at a cycle shop in DiepRiver, and putting it on the PPA Facebook page. His entry was randomly drawn from all entries received in the first week of the competition.
“It is fantastic that I have won a Giant road bicycle,” Mr Hendrickse said. “I own only a mountain bike and was going to do the Cape Argus Pick n Pay Cycle Tour on that. This bicycle came just at the right time!”

Mr Michael Hirshfeld from Dragon Sports was on hand to hand over the bicycle to the winner.
The second winner will be drawn at lunchtime on Friday 24 February 2012. The lucky winner will win a Giant “Halfway” folding bicycle. The winner will be announced on the PPA websit and our Facebook page, and then has until 12h00 0n Wednesday 29 February to contact us to claim the prize.
