Meezo Posted December 20, 2011 Share i received this today "Dear Rameez We posted your Charles Milner medal to you last week. This was for your Coronation Double Century team finishing with all twelve members. The address that we have posted your medal to is:--------------------------------------------- The tracking number is -----------. You can track your parcel on www.sapo.co.za or phone 0860 111 502. Regards The Coronation Double Century team" We never had a 12 man finish, we did finish all 12 riders but not all together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meezo Posted December 20, 2011 Share from dc site The Charles Milner Award, introduced for the first time this year to encourage entrants to embrace the original ethos of the event, went to those teams who finished with all 12 team cyclists crossing the finish line within 15 minutes of each other. my bad!

There's something that the organisers of Wines2Whales could learn from - posting medals to participants. (And while we are at it, how about throwing in a bike wash as part of the R4k entry fee, instead of charging R60 a wash) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bike Mob Posted December 21, 2011 Share Hopefully the result will come in shorter time than Contador's case... There has been one decision so far... Team Brothers Sport were found guilty on a number of accounts and penalised 60 minutes per rider and Lance Muller was DQ'ed. That moves Aurecon into third place. The sad thing is that there is no announcement, no podium and no recognition for the sponsors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC is long gone...move on. Edited December 21, 2011 by AuctionLamb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And while we are at it, how about throwing in a bike wash as part of the R4k entry fee, instead of charging R60 a wash) And letting us ride the whole race. Just remember what we rode at Swazi last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in other words - cheat as much as you want, dope and go mad...as long as you get away with it on the day nobody actually cares after the podium ceremony.

Dude, nobody doped or was found guilty of doping so why use that example?! If I understand correctly, nothing that was done, or "cheated" like you call it, resulted on any time gained. You couldn't win them on the road, so you beat them off it. Well done! Sorry, I had to reply... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I had to reply... Andy this was an example for all races and note I didn't mention you team in that post. I was implying riders in the TDF or whatever race - Look at Landis... all the glory but how many people followed the full story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike Mob Posted December 21, 2011 Share Take the 100m Olympic sprint for example - if you step out of your lane. either side you will be dq'ed - although technically this actually loses you time in the longer overall distance, but you may impede another contestant and still win.
