butafly Posted February 19, 2007 Share Dear All on the VWCA group.Please find attached a response to the letter penned by Mr. Colin Hoffman in respect of CSA. Dear Cyclists ?I think that Colin has lost it completely. Incidentally, he has up until now been the Editor so this is not a good faith letter at all. Colin, your unhappiness clearly stems from the fact that you will no longer be running the CSA website, much, I am sure, to the relief of the cycling community. I appreciate that you are probably sore about losing R6 000,00 a month for the privilege but that money will be better spent elsewhere. For the information of all who read this, the last time I saw Colin in my office, he promised to upgrade the website but sadly not much has happened since. Oh yes, he did contact me and others with an abject apology for allowing some teenagers to access the CSA website, the end result of which is that they pasted obscenities on it. Also, for the record, our General Manager, Sylvia Dale, and I have not been battling it out in Court ? the very thought gives rise to some humour. Sylvia is and remains a valued employee. And neither David Bellairs, my Vice-President, nor I are involved in any coup to take over CSA for fun riders. To the contrary, we are working hard for everyone but most especially for elite cycling, bringing order back where chaos existed and finding new ways to commercialise and fund our beloved sport. Also, for the record, Gotti and I are on good terms and I most certainly would not have stood for the position as President had he not retired. Shame on you, Colin! We give up our time freely and voluntarily but you who have been nicely paid, thank you, for quite a while now, are full of venom and vitriol. Ah, well, at least the CSA website will be well rid of you. I am quite sure that David and I will laugh off your criticism as will my fellow Directors at my law firm, Herold Gie. But your comments directed at our new COO are another matter and should he wish to, I am sure that he could see you in Court anytime. Maybe you had better think about a public apology after you have given yourself some time for sober reflection. Yours faithfullyLAWRENCE WHITTAKERPRESIDENTCSA?Admin2007-02-19 05:54:25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mallo Posted February 19, 2007 Share This is great, the president of CSA participating on the hub as well,we look forward to hearing more from you,as you well know by now this is the cycling bible for us hubbers from truths to myths to downright lies etc. A question to CSA, The manner of appointing the COO was this done with the full knowledge of the Trustees and blessing of Congress. The question of Transformation and Development within CSA when will this be addressed adequately and implemented with proper time frames simply stating "end of 2007" is not conclusive enough. When will CSA's vision be made public for us cyclists on the ground to scutinize and compare to our club objectives to ensure we working inline with our national body.

DRIVETRAIN Posted February 19, 2007 Share Such Childish Behaviour when It comes to things like words: CSA, Seeding, ETC... Load of garbage: That's why I prefer not belonging to any club per say or being licenced any longer ... just a thought.. "DT" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted February 19, 2007 Share OT Not all club's are the same, take mine they allowed me to join (ok maybe thats not such a good point). When i started cycling i belonged to a club that only existed to service 1 of the bigger races (Argus qualifier), corrupt chairman, no elections, no news letter, no rides etc, so i left. Last year I joined a club as it was mentioned that Lic was on the cards, it has all those things the other club did not, including a development team. They give something back to members and cycling in general unlike most other clubs. BTTscotty2007-02-19 06:21:32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groot Lem Posted February 19, 2007 Share Yes Chunky, its the same guy. i think that letter was written in the early hours of the morning, like most of his posts. And after a few brandys.I will enter Carinus for one of the makeover shows on TV.I think one of the major complaints against the top bras in CSA is the bad lines of communicating. Carinus was appointed to improve on that, and other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big H Posted February 19, 2007 Share Meer as makeover nodig!!!!!! More like the banner "this site is under construction"!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelique Posted February 20, 2007 Share Dear Mr Hendrik Lemmer, I fail to see what Gotty has to do with this , he is retired and for your information he has a home in Plettenbergbay. So best you refrain from slandering him. Remember YOU have to account for your past no one else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
