Fedgroup celebrate the success of Ride Joburg, where the inspiring team faced big climbs in honour of community and purpose.

 

South Africa (29 October 2025) – There’s something special about Ride Joburg – that blend of endurance, community, and purpose that defines both the riders and the causes they support. This year, Fedgroup once again brought its trademark mix of grit and heart to the second-largest timed cycle race in the world, proudly backing the Trojans Neurological Trust (TNT) and showing what it means when business and purpose ride in tandem.

Riding for more than a finish line

For over 35 years, Fedgroup, a leading South African financial services provider, has placed investors’ interests at the heart of every decision. Their range of financial solutions is built not only to deliver returns but to create lasting impact – a commitment reflected in the ongoing partnership with TNT.

TNT’s work in neurological rehabilitation helps South Africans regain mobility, independence, and dignity after severe injuries or illnesses. This shared commitment to long-term impact was front and centre at Ride Joburg, as Fedgroup staff, financial advisors, and clients joined forces on the road – some pedalling hard, others pulling TNT beneficiaries in chariots, and all united in purpose.

It was a powerful display of what happens when compassion and commitment move together. Each rotation of the wheel told a story of resilience, for the riders, for TNT beneficiaries, and for everyone striving to make the climb toward something greater.

The final demonstration of determination

Every cyclist knows that one hill – the ultimate test of determination just before the finish line. For Ride Joburg, that hill is Zoo Lake Hill. As the last gruelling climb, it turned into a beacon of encouragement, lined with cheering supporters waving banners and calling riders’ names as they fought through the pain. Fedgroup’s Vibe Zone, set up along Zoo Lake Hill, brought energy, colour, and motivation to every rider who passed. It wasn’t just a hill; it became a symbol of perseverance, perfectly echoing Fedgroup’s mantra:

“Real growth isn’t loud or flashy. It’s slow, steady, and built for the climb. So, whether you’re pushing uphill on a bike, in life, or with your finances, Fedgroup is with you, every step of the way.”

Cash in or double up

Fedgroup’s race-day excitement is set to continue online, with the company moving its much-anticipated “cash in or double up” raffle to social media. As a big ‘thank you’ for joining the event, all supporters and riders who took part on the day will automatically be entered into the draw. Winners will soon have the opportunity to make a meaningful financial choice: take an instant cash prize or double the value by investing in Fedgroup’s flagship Secured Investment, which offers an impressive 11.16% p.a.* on maturity.

  • The first prize offers R5 000 in cash or a R10 000 Secured Investment.
  • The second prize offers R2 500 or a R5 000 Secured Investment.
  • The third prize offers R1 500 in cash or a R3 000 Secured Investment.

This initiative reflects Fedgroup’s ongoing commitment to promoting sound financial decisions. Backed by a proven track record, the Secured Investment product continues to protect capital, deliver reliable income, and achieve market-beating returns year after year – a stable and rewarding addition to any balanced portfolio.

Gratitude that goes the distance

As another unforgettable Ride Joburg came to a close, one thing stood out – it was about more than medals or personal bests. It was about community. Fedgroup extends heartfelt thanks to everyone who rode, pushed chariots, or cheered from the sidelines.

To the TNT team for their tireless commitment to changing lives, and to every supporter who spent their Sunday backing something bigger than themselves – your continued support makes a real difference.

Together, they proved that real progress isn’t defined by speed, but by perseverance, purpose, and people. And whether on the road, in business, or in life, Fedgroup continues to back those who keep climbing.
