As Sindile Mavundla guided young girls on their bikes through a street in Cape Town’s Khayelitsha township, he said he had one goal: to get more of them into cycling. Known as Cape Town’s “Bicycle Mayor”, Mavundla, 34, has been a leading figure in promoting the culture of cycling in the South African city. He teaches first-time riders how to ride a bike, including young girls in impoverished communities where opportunities are hard to come by, through his Khaltsha Cycling Academy.
