Underachiever Posted February 13, 2017 Share Things are getting better.At least you got a medal.Been to SA's where there weren't enough medals.Once you got your medal on the podium you had to give it back,so they could give it to the next group of podium riders.Insanity is thinking anything has changed with CSA over the last 20 years.Just stay away from road and go ride your MTB20 years....try 30.... Actually the medals in the 80's were REAL metal, and of good quality!! See the CSA comms stayed at Diemersfontein. Wonder what the cost of accommodation was vs. the cost of the medals.

Hennie VR Posted February 13, 2017 Share Tweet them and ask them if that is the kind of medal that you are supposed to show/display to the country. And sommer copy the sports minister and the UCI into the tweet as well. That is simply a disgrace. That is supposed to be the medal you recieve for the highest achievement in your country.

Skirminkel Posted February 13, 2017 Share For me it's more symbolic. SA's you don't race for trophies or money or medals. You race to put the stripes on you jersey and to be called SA Champ for a whole year!!! mecheng89 and Cargyrl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Savage Posted February 13, 2017 Share Who's says I'm not day drunk right now??? I know you are day drunk, otherwise you would have read that I said, he will only drunk tweet you at 2am!
