Whilst enjoying their rest day on Thursday, 18 August, two of the cyclists, Derrick Fourie and Gareth Pickering, decided to take on a seemingly impossible challenge to bungee jump off the Victoria Falls Bridge with their Qhubeka Buffalo Bicycles.
“Thanks so much to Shearwater Bungee for helping to make history! As far as we know, they are the first people to ever bungee jump off a bridge on a single-speed, rigid, 20+ kilogram bicycle,” says the team.
Warrick Kernes, the team mascot Barney and Bobby Fuller, one of the support crew members, also bungee jumped, but with no bicycles.
