Canaris Posted October 31, 2008 Share I'm sure there are a bunch of other good reasons as well. So what are the reasons to support SA's in June? I battle to think of one. Anyone? 1.It is cold and crappy everywhere CSA would want to hold it, which is normal in CT, giving the CT riders a chance.2.The riders from Gauteng are all full of flu, giving the CT riders a chance.3. It is during the European summer season, so the SA pro's are unavailable, giving the CT riders a chance. any other reasons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted October 31, 2008 Share I vote that they should have it on the SAME day as the Argus. In this way the Argus can become what it was supposed to be A FUN RIDE and SA Champs can be what it should be THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS CYCLING EVENT in SA. People chose (or even consider) Argus before SA Champs are FUN RIDERS and not serious competitive cyclists' date=' and should give their licences back to CSA, and enjoy riding for fun. Let us sort out the difference between competitive and fun cycling once and for all. [/quote'] They can't do that because not all the licensed riders are allowed in the first licensed/pro bunch. And there are no vets/women/junior bunches. And besides, the distance is not right for the various categories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argus in CT and SA Champs somewhere else where there are real hills like Tzaneen, Sabie, Helpoort, Drakensburg ext. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
