I asked that question to the CSA CEO about 12 years ago :

Tannie Sylvia replied in an e-mail to me " What do you expect for R50.00?"

Ahh,

but it is not just R50.

There is a whole side of funding that is not visible:

as the official SA cycling body:

they have a advantaged place in terms of accessing LOTTO money, and various sport sponsorships and endorsements.

They can extract affiliation fees from the provinces and clubs (which are paid by the cyclists)

They can levy fees on race organisers (paid again by the cyclists)

They can leverage government funding at national, provincial and local level.

They can develop and rent out facilities.

They could organise events.

They can add levies (for administration) on athletes selected to represent South Africa.

They can leverage advertising conncessions.

They can aggressively police and fine the cycle industry (if they wanted to of course)

They can fine cyclists, affiliates and organisers for infractions

there is a very long list of possible revenue streams when you thinkm of it
