Successful first-ever Namport Nedbank Powerhouse Challenge in Lüderitz
7 May 2025
The inaugural Namport Nedbank Powerhouse Challenge, held in Lüderitz on 2-3 May 2025, was a resounding success. The event, organised by the Powerhouse Cycling Club, attracted enthusiastic participants, and showcased the unique landscape of Lüderitz, which provided a stunning backdrop for both mountain bike (MTB) and cycling road races.
In addition to the cycling events, Powerhouse hosted its first-ever running event, which included 5km, 10km, and 21km races. The town of Lüderitz and its surrounding areas offered a beautiful setting for the races, enhancing the overall experience for all participants.
Cyclists praised the organisers for their exceptional effort in hosting the first ever race in Lüderitz. The town's distinctive terrain and strong winds added an exciting challenge that every cyclist should experience. Participants highlighted the organisers' meticulous planning and execution, which contributed to the event's success.
The Secretary General of Powerhouse Cycling Club, Joao da Costa, expressed his satisfaction with the turnout and the smooth running of the event. "We are thrilled with the positive feedback from the participants. The strong winds and unique landscape of Lüderitz made for a memorable race that truly tested the cyclists' endurance and skills."
Namport and Nedbank Namibia, the main sponsors of the event, reiterated their commitment to supporting community development and promoting healthy lifestyles through sports. Cliff Shikuambi, Manager for Marketing and Stakeholder Engagement at Namport, emphasised the importance of such initiatives in fostering nation-building and creating lasting impacts for Namibians.
Selma Kaulinge, Communications and Public Relations Manager at Nedbank Namibia acknowledged the teething issues faced during the first-ever event but highlighted the strong foundation laid for what could become a sought-after cycling event for both Namibian and international cyclists. "At Nedbank Namibia, we believe in the power of sport to unite communities and drive economic growth. The success of the Namport Nedbank Powerhouse Challenge is a testament to the potential of Lüderitz and the dedication of our organisers, we have established a solid base for future events. Nedbank continues to do good in the communities it serves, and this event is a great example of decentralising the sport of cycling and making it more accessible to people across the country."
The event featured MTB races on 2 May, with cyclists tackling 25- and 50 kilometre courses. On 3 May, cycling road racers competed in 50km and 100km categories, while runners participated in 5km, 10km, and 21km races.
The Namport Nedbank Powerhouse Challenge not only provided an exhilarating athletic experience but also served as a significant platform for community engagement and wellness. The organisers look forward to making this an annual event that continues to uplift and inspire the community.
