definitely disco shoes!

 

But yeah, I can definitely see the need for pepper spray. If some guy wearing his tightest PJs and his dancing shoes came swinging at me like this, I would have to be pepper sprayed to subdue my laughter

Take your racist BS elsewhere. Race has nothing to do with their shocking behaviour.

 

Ai .... do we still have people living by the colour of their skin.. thinking they are superior to the rest. Shame on you !@#$%^&* !!

Must admit I have skipped about 10 pages in this thread, so forgive me if the info is in there.

 

Does anyone know what the current situation is? Have the cyclists been identified? Any reaction from them or from Muhammadeya cycling club (whose FB page has closed down)?

Just heard Graham Ward of WP Cycling Association on Cape Talk.

 

He mentioned that the club has been given until 4pm today to come forward with the names of the individuals in the video. If they fail to do so the club will be sanctioned and it's members barred from taking part in WP Affiliated cycling events.

this is the reason why I will never train with a cycling club. I am happy to train alone or with one or two mates.

Good....accountability and responsibility are a must!

I'd also suggest once they are sanctioned it is made public, it needs to be communicated that this is not the type of behaviour the cycling community condones.

It goes without saying, but Graham also mentioned that those riders involved in the incident will appear in a WP Cycling disciplinary hearing and receive sanctions.
