20 Years of Bike Hub

In August* 2024, Bike Hub celebrated its 20th anniversary, and we’re taking a nostalgic look back at how far we’ve come.

* We’re not entirely sure of the exact month, but it was around this time.

2004: How it all started

What began in 2004 as thehubsa.co.za was initially a simple discussion forum for cycling enthusiasts. It stemmed from an idea for “CyclingCT,” a website intended to serve as a directory of stores, clubs, trails, and road routes around Cape Town and the Western Cape, complete with a message board. This small community quickly gained momentum, becoming a hub for cyclists across the country.
