The race forms part of the Nelson Mandela Centenary celebrations, which celebrate the birth, life and legacy of Madiba. Sport was one of the vehicles he used to drive unity. The route passes landmarks in Johannesburg that are dedicated to his name and memory.
Proceeds go to the Nelson Mandela Foundation.
