  1. Look at the open men results....super quick times!
  2. SA Elite ladies got 3rd on Saturday with Charlene du Preez and Willie Smit taking gold yesterday
  3. By all accounts it was...another good example...at track SA's last year CSA's rules stated no overshoes on the pursuit...UCI permits it...thus overruled. Mistakes are being made far to often by comms and they have no consistency. Riders tend not to make a fuss about things because they know it might just bite them in the long run...
  4. The rules that were told to the riders and the team managers were not the same as what panned out. They were told that the U/23 and elites would be starting together but it would be two separate race results. So when Elmari who was an U/23 rider broke away the team managers confirmed with the comms that she would be classified as u/23 and the elite title is still open....and the comms apparently confirmed this. They were asked the same question when Heidi broke and confirmed that it is two separate results, but true to SA Cycling they did not take note of the UCI rule on this which overules the CSA rules Heidi deserves the win she took it to them with one lap to go
  5. I would say host two if you can but over different routes if possible. Road cycling needs events like yours to grow
  6. I know of a couple of people whom enjoyed the race. I really think if it gets supported it will grow in numbers over the next couple of years as I am sure they will get the commitment of sponsors. Spinnekop why not give feedback to the race organiser on what your grief is and then see how they commit to better it next year, coming on a forum and just give feedback without any information reasoning it does not give the full picture....a story always has 3 sides
  7. Running out of sponsors to back him me thinks
  8. Must say got the same feeling reading the comment
  9. WADA whom SAIDS is affiliated to has complete lists on their website, just takes a bit of time to search
  10. One can already enter for next years race
  11. Proper stats there! Post a link to the video please
  12. SAIDS where testing extensively at this track meeting....we where there from juniors to vets 50+, if you participated and placed well you had a good chance to be tested over the 3 days

  14. Still not the doctors responsibility to know....it is the athletes responisibility
  15. You can download an app...put in the name and boom you know....sort of immediately
  16. Guys do not judge before all the facts are known and do not draw nor make up conclusions. She has the right to appeal it let the process run its course. For interest sake Coryx also has a substance in that we test yoy as positive in a window period of two days after consumption, how many of you use it for a cold?
  17. That will be about R65k landed in SA....damnnnnn
  18. Give me a well organised race any day over a goodie bag....they need to find the guy who first gave out one because he needs a hiding!
  19. This race was well supported in the past espicially with the lead up to 94.7 Bad organising like this will not attract any worthwhile sponsors unfortunately and this will keep the race numbers and support down
  20. What sort of numbers are you talking about? Satellite this weekend had 5000 over all cats...your event is years ahead in terms of well....everything Keep doing the good work....word of mouth will pay off
  21. They really need antoher venue...getting 5000 odd people in and out of that venue is asking for trouble. Vehicles coming in and cyclists heading out on the same straight is asking for a serious accident. Add in people who start to stress about not parking in time and stopping next to the road and cycling in adds more possibility of a *&%$ up. They facilities are just not geared for this type of mass event....cap it at 2500 entrants. The route is great and the roads are not tooooooo busy although we had the odd dumb motorist pulling stupid overtaking moves.
  22. No Willie Smit as well who is on excellent form Clint Hendricks is his team mate at Roadcover We can not judge the riders because they do not pick themselves, which also means we can not comment on their results
