How he has not won a major South African sports recognition accolade yet, I will never know.

You could ask the same about the Caveman,Robbie Hunter,Daryl Impey.

is this like a farewell tribute or something? Then again, my sentiment is being formed by rumors of his retirement from DH. All just rumor so take with truckload of salt.
But have to agree with LanceB.. twice world champ and zero national recognition. Niche sports can suck.

Think it's just your PC.... Video ended for me just after his interview about the event in pmb this yr, with a clock countdown and then credits...
PS - Congrats on your win last week!!

They interviewed Greg on Capetalk last night and he was asked if it is worth it for him money wise to be a pro DH'er or must he suplement his income. Greg's answer was that he can make a good living and compared it to what the national cricket guys get payed, but he also said thay you can't be a pro in South Africa and that you have to be in the US or Europe to make a good living.

I did a ski season in Vail in 2001, some of the locals asked me about this kid who had kicked butt at the recent world champs there. He got a third, can't believe he is still doing it!
Makes no sense that Ryan sandes is a bigger name than Greg

Well done Greg, video lacks a hook... Would be better to start with some footage of him riding etc..
