  1. We forget them so soon and the next generation will not know what we have lost. The latest L'Equipe magazine, focussing on the Tour, had a photo essay on significant crashes over the years. This is what my limited translation of the caption says : "At 21 years old, the young South African climber John-lee Augestyn summitted the 2802m cime de la bonette in the lead before crashing and plummeting 30m down the ravine on the descent. With the aide of a spectator he climbed back up to the road and finished 34th in the stage, well ahead of his team mate Chris Froome who finished anonymously in the pack, more than 30 minutes behind." It then goes on to talk about his broken hip from an earlier crash and his premature retirement from cycling in 2014 at the age of 27. I was following the tour in 2008 and recall the pride and expectation of having a young Saffer at the top of the sport. Just like Louis Meintjies, it seemed we had a contender.
