is that it?

Ha . Big fanfare for 2 names. Good luck Max, give it horns bru. Nice sounding climb from the start there, just to ease into the race.

Big up to De Groot and Knox. I wish them the best.

 

But the Europeans are going to wipe the floor with them. Won't be anything new. 

 

Edit: It's weird to see Knox, who isn't the current SA Marathon champ, represent the country at the Marathon World Champs.

No offence to Max, he is a legend. But surely there are some other guys showing better form right now?

Think its highly dependent on the course, I big climbing race like this Max is probably the rider to go with.

 

Just go back to Sabie Classic to see what I mean.

Agreed, he smoked Sabie this year and with new sponsor and backing, hopefully hes got his head on right and found some new motivation

Crazy, surely CSA can send more riders?

 

Even U/23's !?

 

Watch and see what a joke the Road Champs squad is going to be....yet again

2 PEOPLE - that's it?

 

Jeez, that's not even a half-hearted effort by CSA - is it supposed to be a joke?

Apparently Robyn has pulled out so wonder who her replacement will be or if CSA will even send a female rider?

Source if the info?

 

If so surely Cherise must go

 

I see CSA have set up incentives as well, seems that you can enter yourself if you have qualified, CSA are only sending two riders at their cost it seems
