A short discussion was held,

 

the Cape townian said he was the strongest because in the cape they have "like the mountain" and nobdy can bet to the Pomphuis in Gordon's bay.Also they have the fun riders world championships (which can be done in under three hours.

 

THe Joburger corrected him as in Joburg there is the toughest race, and anyway kids moer cars for training.  Anyway the real tough guys use Golf course hill and Fischer hill for hill training.

 

The Port Elizabeth cyclists indicated that living in a permanent wind tonnel qualified them to speak with authority.

 

THE Pretoria rider was a bit embarrassed and decided not to comment, after all there are no hills in Pretoria that require a small blade.  Also the weather in Pta just seemed right the whole year around.......

 

Then the Benoni rider spoke sagely of the Benoni World Championships and all instinctively knew.

Let's leave the pro's out of this. On average, what deprevations are the cycling population (amateur) of each city willing to subject themselves to?

Should re-name this thread/poll - "What town do you come from?" and you'll get the same results.

there are stories and there are facts... and it is a FACT that cape town cyclists are genarally funriders and cant ride. Racing in gauteng you cant compare and is just completely different and harderavatar2008-03-10 05:02:22
