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.  :thumbdown:

Now the minister is going to spend the whole day seeing if he missed out an a banquet and a party and then checking if cycling is part of his duty. His entire day is ruined. 

 

Just wait till 2am when he starts drunk replying to your tweets!

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!!!

I know you are day drunk, otherwise you would have read that I said, he will only drunk tweet you at 2am!

 

But on topic, those medals are one up from the plastic sticker stuck onto a tin medal.

You are right, it is symbolic, of how our government feels about our athletes.

Just like winning a gold at the olympics... it's symbolic, you don't need it.... try telling that to the olympians who worked blood sweat and tears to get a medal and title that goes with.... perhaps you should ask Bolt how he feels about loosing 1 of his 9 medals.... am sure he will say, ag is just a medal... somehow I think not !!

 

I guess if you not in a position to win one or will never win one... then am sure the mentality will be its more symbolic!!
