 Some of the world's top DJs, labels and music industry execs will participate in a virtual cycle relay ride from iconic music venues as part of an 8 hour virtual fundraiser. Proceeds will support students and artists in underserved communities in SOUTH AFRICA through non-profit partner, BRIDGES FOR MUSIC. The event will be streamed live on BEATPORT on WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21st.
 

The venues and riders will be connected through the virtual cycling app ZWIFT to complete an 8 hour cycling relay via a stream powered by BEATPORT.
