Set Point cyclists conquer The 94.7

Standing proudly (some nervously!) at the starting line of the recent 94.7 cycle race in Johannesburg were fourteen intrepid cyclists from the various Set Point sister companies. All fourteen Set Point team members who started the race, also crossed the finish line and earned medals.

Congratulations to all the team members who put in a big effort to complete their training and grind their gears to climb the inclines on the new course, which is apparently much hillier than previously.

Thank you and well done to Greg Morse, Set Point Group Health and Safety manager, for a great job as team manager.

Some of the Set Point cyclists who completed the gruelling 94.7 cycle race in Johannesburg recently were, from left to right, Sharon Fay, Greg Morse, Karen Black, Steven Black, Marius de Wet, Stephed Francis, Wian Nortje, Eran Nortje and Pieter Nortje.

(Other cyclists who completed the race but were not in the photograph were: Adrian Budding, Deon Steenkamp, Caitlin van Eeden, Ryan Joshua and Vic Bester.)

WearCheck riders saddle up for 94.7 cycle race

An intrepid team of WearCheck staff, family members, and Set Point Group colleagues from around South Africa entered the popular, but daunting, 94.7 cycle race in Johannesburg last Sunday. Some of the team members gathered to show off their snazzy WearCheck-sponsored cycling kit just before the start of the race. 

Among the finishers from the Pinetown laboratory were WearCheck MD Neil Robinson and lab manager Paul Swan, as well as sales developer Kay Meyrick. Finishing at the head of the pack in a flying time of 3hrs 17 minutes was Set Point Group CEO, Graham Horsfield.

All who participated agreed that training and racing together was a great team-building exercise, and went a long way towards boosting the cyclists’ fitness levels and the improved motivation of having set and achieved goals.
