Road World Champs 2018 Austria

[Patchelicious]

All these names pulling out really doesn’t help the sponsors in justifying their costs.

[Shebeen]

Well, This is sad....

 

Cannot believe CSA is not helping 1 bit, in no way at all!! World Tour riders buying their own kit, paying their own way and now for the vehicles and staff too??

 

No Impey, Smit, Dlamini(All World Tour riders) and CSA are solely to blame for this!! There is no doubting where the problem lies!!

 

CSA you are KILLING cyclists in SA!!

 

But I guarantee that if a SA cyclist had to podium at worlds, CSA will take credit!!

 

goeie bliksem.

 

So basically all CSA contribute is the selection?

 

Riders really need to pay/find sponsors for staff/vehicles?

Surely CSA have a budget for worlds, was it really R0.02?

 

The less riders there, the more it costs per rider.

I could maybe see didata rescuing it here they probably have vehicls too, but that's not the point. Our riders have been let down big time here, it's embarrassing.

 

I hope Alan Hatherley and his World Champs medal are not claimed by CSA as their success.

Ok update then, Nic Dlamini has reconsidered and is now going to Worlds.

Thoughts on your podium

Pleeeze

 

Very difficult to choose with this climbers' course

 

Uran, Alaphillippe, Nibali right up there for me

 

I think if the colombian team get their act together they will be hard to beat.

 

I'm not convinced alaphillipe will hang on long enough if the pace is high enough up those climbs.

Eish.....the weather is changing and some very cold conditions moving in for next week.

 

Hope the SA riders have some warm kit.
