HOW DO I APPLY FOR A RESEEDING?
Seeding runs take place in the first week of each month - you can check out the seeding section of the web site to see if you qualify for a new number. If you do qualify to be upgraded and decide that you do want to do so, you need to bring your old seeded number BACK TO THE OFFICE as this number needs to go back into the database. The current cost to be reseeded is R50.00.
Please note that it is compulsory to return your current number, as new seeded numbers will only be issued on return of the old ones.
HOW DO I GET TO PPA?
Our physical address is: 9 Hill Park Lane, Mowbray, 7700.
From Northern Suburbs: - take the N1, then M5, then N2, take the Liesbeeck Parkway turnoff to the left. Turn left at the first set of traffic lights – that’s Durban rd and you’ll be going away from the mountain. Then take the first right into Hill Park Lane.
From Southern Suburbs: - same as above but start from the M5 or N2.
From Cape Town: - take the N2 out of town, take the left Liesbeeck Parkway off-ramp. Turn right at the traffic lights towards Rondebosch. At the traffic lights turn left into Durban road and first right into Hill Park Lane.
WHAT ARE EASY ENTRY TICKETS?
Easy Entry Tickets are pre-paid funride entry tickets, which allows you to use the pre-entry fee even though you are entering only on the day. On average, using an Easy Entry ticket saves you R10 for an individual entry.
Easy Entry tickets are only to be used by current PPA members.
We sell them in booklets of 5 tickets .
You can also purchase a book of family Easy Entry Tickets. One ticket can be used for a family of 3 or more, on average saving you the entry fee of one cyclist. Each family member must be a PPA member in order to make use of this facility.
You can purchase Easy Entry booklets from the PPA Mobile Office after the rides or from our office during the week. The reason for Easy Entry tickets being sold only once the ride has started, is due to the fact that it is regarded as a pre-entry, which cannot be sold on the day.
To enter a funride, all you need to do is to fill in your details and the details of the ride that you will be participating in, and hand in your ticket at the Easy Entry Registration table before the event begins.
WHY CAN I NOT SEE MY RESULTS ON THE WEB SITE?
If you do NOT wear your transponder while participating in an event, please note that PPA will not be able to credit you with your time or position for that particular event.
NO TRANSPONDER - NO RESULT!
As one of the PPA membership benefits, only PPA members will see their results on the web site. So, if you did ride with your personal transponder and you do not see your results, check with the PPA office to find out if your membership had not lapsed.
