MonsterMan Posted April 15, 2018 Share Well done to all our South Africans representing us at the Gold Coast common wealth games......Great to see Alan Hatherly coming in and taking the bronze in the XCO MTB, but with all due respect, Clint Hendricks came in and took Bronze in the Road race.....why is there no mention of this any where???

ajnkzn Posted April 15, 2018 Share Regardless. I was super stoked to see him come from nowhere in the sprint and wipe the arrogant look off that little **** Sam Gaze’s face. Mylolylo, Maj, Long Wheel Base and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldron Posted April 15, 2018 Share How do you really feel about Clint ????About Clint personally? I don't even know the guy. I have no feelings either way. My statement has nothing to do with Clint - I just don't think the achievement is outstanding in the greater scheme of things. karma, pista, stringbean and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, it's a medal for South Africa, which I think we can all agree is good. mikkelz, WhuYu, Traveler and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or his achievement is outstanding in the greater scheme of things. Is it so difficult to give some credit when one of our Saffas do well?

Patchelicious Posted April 15, 2018 Share Understood. But, it's a medal for South Africa, which I think we can all agree is good.A medal for SA is alway good. And I do know Clint, not well but we have shared a couple of really cool conversations and rides, he is an proper lekker guy. But one must always compare results with field quality if you want to be truly impartial. I think he did well and I take my hat off to him. karma, Raf, Gen and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare that to a regional rider getting bronze at a depleted regional comp. Willie wins that one hands down. Plus I never said it wasn't an achievement- I just pointed out that the competition pool was pretty shallow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credit where credit is due - it was in a world tour event and the quality of the field was incredible. But credit where credit is due... Clint made the winning break and netted a Bronze for himself and team SA - also against a top quality field Heppy, FlashJordan, MonsterMan and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
