CYCLIST Meli Ndlovu is expected in the country later this evening as he completes his journey from Midrand South Africa to Zimbabwe on a bike.
Ndlovu who left South Africa on Monday morning is now in the last phase of his journey which is travelling from Gwanda to Bulawayo.
Ndlovu had planned to land in Bulawayo at 1 pm but was delayed by some hours.
Ndlovu became famous when he made claims to have cycled 865km from Midrand, South Africa to Bulawayo in less than two days two years ago. The claims sparked debate about whether it is possible to cycle such a distance in those hours.
The feat became a subject of debate on social media platforms, with some disputing Ndlovu’s claim that he left Midrand on Saturday at around 3 am and reached Bulawayo on Monday at around 1 pm.
