Don't think PPA is about to expire any time soon. Their strength is mass participation - and that is growing, especially in mtb.

 

If someone else wants to cater for and nurture the serious racers, it can only be good for cycling. What is important however, is that it should be sustainable in the long term.

I am trying to keep PPA comment to PPA tread - but a big part of PPA road success has been looking after the more serious "fun riders." The 2013 Spring league they have decided to cancel even after making just over R25 033 off the leagues in 2013 (page 9 http://www.pedalpower.org.za/wp-content/plugins/downloads-manager/upload/2013%20AGM%20book%20Final.pdf )

 

I don't want to start a PPA debate under this thread! Go to the PPA Annual General Meeting 2013 thread and I am more than happy to debate this their!

Especially in the cash-crunched world we live in.
