You are so right traak and all you other overseas correspondents - hard to admit, but it's not all roses outside of SA - and SA has the best amateur racing (both i.t.o. organisation and competition level) that I am aware of - and even the Pro thang in SA is EXCELLENT! Take a bow all you South Africans - I put it down to the SA work ethic and can-do attitude! My son is in SA right now, chasing a pro dream - we found that Australia is just backward when compared to SA, in a "promoting cycling" respect. Beat your chests about that too. Hope that's given all you folk in SA some consolation.
