Gerald “Gerry” Hendricks, principal ofSt John’s Roman Catholic PrimarySchool in Kensington, has hanged his

coat up after 36 years at the school.He says he greeted his last day on Friday

withmixed feelings as a lot goes into it whensomeone has to retire.“It’s not just a decision to walk away. You

have to set the date and start with the paper-

work. That is not easy because over theyears thishasbecomeyour life and just shut-ting the door like that is very difficult,” hesays.Gerry remembers vividly how it was

when he started teaching at the school in1980.“The first day I walked into a classroom

I was overwhelmed. I walked in and all thechildren looked at me. They watched my ev-erymove and theywatched how I spoke. Aft-er saying our prayers they all sat down qui-

etly, looking atme and that’swhen I realisedhow big the task was. I knew I wasn’t thereto waste any time but to add value to theirlives,” he says.Over time he moved up the ranks and 18

years ago he become principal of the school.“When I got the position it was unbelieva-

ble. My life changed and there was a hugesense of responsibility. I wasn’t going to letthe school down. Iworkedhard and Iworkedwith everyone.“What really touchesmyheart is the inno-

cence of these children. They accept youwithout question. They received me withwarmth and love and allowed me to leadthem and I had to return their love. After allthese years what I will miss themost are thechildren,” he says.He has taught up to the third generation

of family members at the school. Gerry be-lieves what attracts people to the school isthe collaboration between the pupils, teach-ers and parents.V Continued on page 2.

“That has worked very well forus. I don’t want to measure myachievement through what Ihave done, but by the growth ofmy colleagues. I know I leavethe school in good hands. I hadgreat staff members. They al-lowed me to lead them. Theytrusted me and they could readmy heart, so they will be able totake the school to greaterheights and I wish them well,”Gerry says.He decided to leave at the end

of October to make sure that hefinished the syllabus with hisGrade 7 pupils.Gerry has been described as

the epitome of love andwarmth.One of the pupils, SaskaMich-

aelson, a Grade 6 pupil whosegrandmother also went to theschool, says she will miss him.“I will always remember and

miss how he stood at the gateand huggedme as wewalked in-to the school gate. When I cameto the school I didn’t know howto spell but now I can spell per-fectly through his help,” shesays.

Deputy principal Nadia Phil-lips says Gerry is a symbol of aneagle.“He flies up above the sky,

andwithhis leadershipwewereable to go to greater heights. Weare really grateful for his ser-vice; he has taught us a lot. Heled by example, empowered hisstaff by showing leadership andthat’s a sign of a good leader.Wewill miss himmostly because ofhis courage, which is largerthan life,” says Phillips.Gerry will be moving to the

there. I want to impart myknowledge that I have gainedover the years and help the peo-ple become leaders aswell. Iwillvolunteer there and help upliftthe rural communities with lit-eracy programmes and otherthings. I believe we have a diffi-cult role to play and togetherwith the people that I will beworking with I want them to re-view their ways and make bet-ter communities.”

Operation Fielayields results

NICOLE MCCAIN@nickymccain

About a thousand people are setto march to the mayor’s officetomorrow, frustrated about a

lack of transparency from the City ofCape in dealing with District Sixland.The District Six working commit-

tee claims the City is “not transpar-ent in its dealings with the people”and keeps “selling off land to CPUTand other companies for profit”, in-stead of building sustainable low-cost housing in the city.The City has a responsibility to-

wards “the people to make as muchland available for restitution purpos-es – and not only the deeply disputed42 hectares”, says Shahied Ajam,chairperson of the District Six work-ing committee.“The City is primarily the custodi-

an of the vacant land in District Sixand as such has a duty. The WesternCape department of rural develop-ment and land reform offices fall un-der the watch of the City and bothhave been ‘dragging their feet’ in theland reform process for the last 10years, thus giving people a sense ofhopelessness and despair,” Ajamsays.“Restitution is not at work in Dis-

trict Six. It would appear that ourdignity and heritage does not matterto the City.”Ian Neilson, mayoral committee

member for finance, says the rede-velopment of District Six is primari-ly the responsibility of the nationaldepartment of rural developmentand land affairs.

“The City, the Western Cape gov-ernment and the department of ruraldevelopment and land affairs havestood together in our joint determi-nation to see the development of Dis-trict Six proceedas soonaspossible,”he says.“The City is in complete support of

the department to unlock the devel-opment which has been held up byspecial interests for 20 years.“It is now time for the development

to proceed. The City and the depart-ment have done everything in ourpower to speed up the process and toprevent further delays while at thesame time being responsive to com-munity and stakeholder inputs. Inaddition, the department has openeda new process for additional landclaimants.”Neilson believes it is “not correct

or fair” to create the impression thatthe City has been a main cause forany delays, having released availa-ble City-owned land to the depart-ment in the area for restitution.The City has also provided a bud-

get for all the bulk services for the de-velopment and the internal servicesfor the current phase, Neilson says.Restitution inDistrict Sixhasbeen

“overwhelmingly covered in fraud,inequity and injustice”, Ajamclaims.“Many elderly and frail people, aft-

er 21 years of democracy, are still ‘sit-ting outside in the cold’ despite beingeligible for restitution. Many havediedwithout their rights having everbeen restored. How can the Citystand by and allow all of this to hap-pen?” Ajam says.“It is common knowledge by now

that restitution was never abouthousing schemes. It was alwaysabout having lost our ‘right in land’in apartheid South Africa and beingreturned to our land. Therefore resti-tution is free and people’s dignitymust be restored as soon as humanlypossible. Government has a duty to-wards the people in terms of the Con-stitution.”The march also aims to express

displeasure over the lease of theGoodHopeCentre to a film company,without “consulting with the affect-ed people”, Ajam says.The lease agreement process for

the Good Hope Centre has been reac-tivated and the City is currently con-ducting a public participation proc-ess, Neilson says.The Good Hope Centre has been

booked from July to December for afilm company. Vendors were givenmore than four months’ notice in or-der to look for alternative venues, hesays.“The City has committed to assist-

ing long-standing tenants of theGoodHope Centre to find alternative ve-nues for their events that were nor-mally held at the venue. The City’sassistance comprised finding othersuitable City-owned venues as wellas financial support for either publicor privately owned venues, wherethe costs of alternative locationswere disproportionate to the pre-ferredvenue should that be required.“The requirement was that all ap-

plications have to be lodged with theCity’s events office at least 120 daysprior to the event, to be able to be con-sidered for financial and non-finan-cial support,” he says.

Hands full with school’s harvestTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Chapel Street Primary School inWoodstock had its first harvest

after the school’s food garden wascreated a couple of months ago.

The 400m2 garden was full of differ-ent vegetables and all had to be har-vested. They will supplement thefeeding scheme at the school.

Different kinds of vegetables wereharvested, including kale, cabbage,broccoli, turnips, leeks, beetroot, cel-ery and spinach. There are also per-ennial herbs, like rosemary, laven-der, oregano, thyme, basil and wildgarlic.

The garden will also be used by pu-pils to learn about gardening andhow to look after their gardens so thatthey can start their own ones at theirhomes and in their communities.

The MySchool MyPlanet MyVil-lage organisation and Woolworths Fi-nancial Services have been workingwith the school on various things.

The school had a vacant piece ofland and they saw an opportunity touse the land and give the pupils some-thing to eat.

Last month they had a mural paint-ed at the school to improve the playarea for the children and to promotepartnership between the communityand the school.

On the day of the harvest the schoolwas full of activity as the childrenhelped in the garden.

Karriem Gabriels, acting schoolprincipal, said his heart was filledwith humility and gratitude as theywere having their first harvest.

“We are really grateful for the con-cern that you have for the school,” hetold representatives of the two orga-nisations.

“The pupils we have here are fromdifferent backgrounds. We are reallyhappy that with the food garden andthe feeding scheme that we run at the

school we can make a difference inthe lives of the children.

“It’s always nice to know that thereare people that we can count on andthey will always be there to supportus in making a difference in otherpeople’s lives,” he said.

Pieter Twine, general manager ofmarketing at MySchool MyVillageMyPlanet, said they had been helpingthe principal and teachers with day-to-day programmes. They don’t onlyfocus on fundraising.

“All we have done is to help kids tobe successful. A child that doesn’t eatcan’t study. We are happy to be sup-plementing the feeding scheme andthe children will learn on full stom-achs and that will make them suc-cessful.

“We will keep coming back to checkon them to see how the garden is do-ing and see what other things we cando for them to improve their learningenvironment.”

Woolworth Financial Services hasbeen working with the schoolthrough their participation in the“community of learning principals”and the “partners for possibility” ini-tiative. The company wanted to con-tinue supporting them, so that theycan continue on their journey to bemore sustainable and independent.

Nick Smuts from Woolworth Fi-nancial Services says they will con-tinue to help the school and to makesure that they succeed.

“We will continue to be involvedwith the school, see to their needs andmake sure that their needs are ca-tered for so that they will be able tolearn and make sure that they dogood. We will continue to strengthenthe partnership and we are glad thatwe have seen the fruits of it,” he says.

The garden will be maintained byUrban Harvest. They help the pupilsto look after the garden and makesure that the garden is also sustaina-ble.

TrudaTurner cycled fromKakamas in theNorthern Cape to Rondebosch to inspire

and empower others to do good and raisefunds for children with cancer.Arriving at the Red Cross War Memorial

Children’s Hospital after cycling the1000kmdistance, shewas joinedbyother cy-clists and hosted a party for some of theyoung patients at the hospital.Her husband and brother accompanied

and helped her on the trip. The funds raisedwill be managed by My Child Has CancerTrust (MCHCT).

Turner was motivated to do somethingfor others after she saw her sister-in-lawsuffer terribly from cancer. Her last wordsas she lay on her death bed pushed Turnerto get on the bike.

“‘If I can get out of this bed, I will do some-thing for God and my fellow man.’ She wasnot only my sister-in-law; she was also mybest friend. Because of what she said I wasdetermined to do something good for man-kind,” Turner, from Keimoes, says.

The decision to raise funds for this partic-ular trust was inspired by a friendwho ben-efited from the trust while her daughter re-ceived cancer treatment.

MCHCT was started by Deirdre Taylorand two other mothers to honour their chil-drenwhohad cancer. Taylor’s sonwas diag-nosed with cancer when he was five yearsold. She says she felt a gap in support forindividuals with similar experiences.

“Formost of that time,whenpeople askedme how I was, I just said I was fine. It waseasier to do that than to have to repeat theexplanations of what, why and how thingswere happening. You could say that I worea mask for the entire year that my son wasin treatment,” she says.Upon meeting another mother whose

child had cancer they were brought closerby their circumstances. They then plannedan event for their children.

“We realised howmuch lighterwe felt fol-lowing a day of just being normal. In somereally strange way, thismade the rest of thejourney easier.

“Whenmyson finally completedhis treat-ment, the nagging to create something dif-ferent grew stronger and one night I had adream that felt so real. When I awoke fromthis dream, I knew exactly what the nameof the organisation needed to be and aspectsof what it was supposed to do. I also wokeup knowing that no matter how many rea-sons I could think up why it couldn’t work,that it would work,” she says.

With the creation of the trust she and oth-er mothers started to reach out to moremothers across hospitals to offer theirhands to hold and a shoulder to cry on.They offer opportunities to be “normal”.

They help with things like groceries andelectricity vouchers and also provide in-hospital meals.

“Our most intangible support is that weare able to be there for these families in away that allows them to feel normal, be-causewehave been there. InCancervilleweare family,” she says.

Water woes forsome residentsTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

A few residents in Factreton and Kensing-ton say the City of Cape Town is taking

them for a ride.They claim the City promised to scrap

their water bills if they installed a watermanagement device.

But it has led to nothing but a headachefor them. Despite having the device in-stalled they still get a bill with the sameamount that they owed before, some of theresidents claim.

Kensington resident Leoni van der West-huizen says she didn’t have water formonths despite filing all the necessary doc-umentation.

“Life has been unbearable. We have to gofor months without water. The City saidthey put the device in but it looks like noth-ing was done.

“When I went to enquire they told me thatmy bill would be scrapped, but none of thatwas done. So what’s the point of installingthe water management device when youwill still owe them money and you don’teven have the water?” she says.

Soraya Alexander, a Factreton resident,says she had her device installed in 2013 andapplied for an indigent grant, but to her sur-prise she still gets a bill.

“They keep saying it has been scrappedbut every month I get the bill. It’s so frus-trating. I thought taking the device wouldmake life much easier,” she says.

Jimmy Xalipi, a KenFac community lead-er, says: “I have taken more than 25 peopleto the City to query their water bills butnothing was done.

“If they say they will scrap the water billwhy are people still getting the bills? Mostof the people have done all the documenta-tion required by the City, but still it hasn’thelped. They must stop taking our peoplefor granted and sort out this mess. Peopleneed water and they shouldn’t lie to them,”he says.

Ward councillor Lisa Mcbride says peo-ple need to be re-educated on the water man-agement device.

“There is a problem with the device andpeople don’t really understand how itworks. There are glitches and at times thedebt is partially erased. With some it can bereinstated, depending on what was agreedand how you kept that commitment.

“I get numerous complaints from peoplesaying they don’t have water. People don’tfully understand how it works and that hasto be addressed,” she says.

Mcbride encourages residents to makeuse of the free landlines at the Factretoncommunity centre and Kensington civiccentre if they want to enquire anythingwith the City.

Ernest Sonnenberg, mayoral committeemember for utility services, says the debtwrite-off after a resident takes on a watermanagement device is only applicable to in-digent customers.

After investigating a few residents’ com-plaints Sonnenberg says one of them liveson a property which is valued at more thanR300 000 and therefore does not qualify fora write-off.

Another resident’s arrears were writtenoff last year, but seems to have been usinga lot of water periodically since then. Hesays the meter will be investigated.


Following a review of designated sites forthe discharge of fireworks, the list of ap-proved sites across the city has increasedfrom eight to 12.The City of Cape Town has approved the

12 sites for the discharge of fireworks dur-ing Guy Fawkes, Diwali and New Year’sEve celebrations. The list was approved inconsultation with the various subcouncilsafter a review of existing sites, which in-cluded community feedback and looking atchallenges experienced in previous years.In termsof theCommunityFireSafetyby-

law, areas where fireworks are to be dis-charged must be at least 100m from build-ings, roads and railway lines and at least20m from telephone and power lines, treesor other overhead obstructions, they mustbe at least 500m from any petroleum depot,explosives magazine or gas cylinder, carsmust be parked at least 100m away from thefiring point and all entrances and emergen-cy exits must be identified and maintained.“Wehave also removedTheoMarais Park

in Milnerton from the list of sites followingobjections from the public,” says JP Smith,mayoral committee member for safety andsecurity.After consultation with the subcouncils,

the following sites have been approved forthe discharge of fireworks:

. Tourism Centre, Athens Road, TableView beachfront

.Wesfleur sports field, ReygersdalDrive,Atlantis

. Bishop Lavis sports field, Lavis Drive,Bishop Lavis

.Metropolitan sports grounds,MelkhoutStreet, Bonteheuwel

. Delft Central sports grounds, MainRoad, Delft

. Swartklip sports complex, SwartklipRoad, Mitchell’s Plain

.Athlone Stadium parking area (easternside), Klipfontein Road, Athlone

. Maiden’s Cove parking area, VictoriaRoad, Camps Bay

. Strandfontein Pavilion, Strandfontein

. Sarepta sports complex, Kuilsriver

. Blue Downs sports field

. Macassar Beach parking area, Macas-sar Road, MacassarNo-one under the age of 16 is permitted

to discharge fireworks and 23:00 is the cut-off time on both Guy Fawkes and Diwali,with New Year’s Eve being the exception.“I hope that residents can appreciate the

massive logistical exercise we deal with ev-ery year, aswell as the costs associatedwithdeploying staff to all of these areas. Wecould look at designatingmore sites, but wesimply do not have the budget or the resour-ces,” Smith says.

V Anyone with information about the illegal sale oruse of fireworks can report it to the metro police callcentre on 0860 765 423. General emergencies can bedirected via the City’s public emergency call centreon 107 from a landline or 021 480 7700 from a cell-phone.

Police say emergency services are havingdifficulty to rush to residents’ aid whenthey can’t find the correct addresses of resi-dents in distress.It has come to the attention of Maitland

police that a lot of the houses in the Mait-land area have missing house numbers.This is either due to theft or because

homeowners do not replace the numbersafter a painting or restoration job.It is due to this reason that emergency

services, such as the police, ambulance ser-vices and the fire brigade, might struggleto find a home to provide the much neededessential services.Police suggest that residents paint their

house numbers on the wall where it will beclearly visible from the street. A clear andvisible house number is essential, say thepolice.

A married couple were arrested in Mait-land for lying about their car getting

stolen.The husband (25) had alleged that his

wife (33) drove their car, a Volkswagen Po-lo. They stopped at a garage inVoortrekkerRoad in Maitland where their car was tak-en from them at gunpoint.After video footage was obtained it came

to light that the husband was the driver ofthe car and that there had been no-one elsewith him.Sergeants Steven Pritchard and Andrea

Appies of Maitland detective services ledthe investigation that resulted in them be-ing arrested. They appeared in the CapeTownMagistrates’ Court on charges of per-jury and defeating the ends of justice.Maitland police spokesperson Constable

Lorencial Johnson says police would liketo once again caution members of the pub-lic not to lie when reporting crimes, espe-cially for insurance fraud.“The truth will eventually come out and

affect the case negatively, resulting in theoriginal charges cancelled and the com-plainant facing criminal charges in court,”he says.

It’s that time of year when men pack away their razorsand start growing – facial hair, that is.And while grooming your moustache to be the best it

canbe is the aim for thenextmonth, it’s vital to rememberthe reason behind the movement.The simple truth is that it’s not a competition to see

who has the biggest beard.The point of Movember, now an international annual

movement, is to create awareness of men’s health duringthe month of November.Originally to getmen talking about prostate cancer, the

movement has now grown to encompass testicular can-cer, mental health and physical inactivity.This year, men are being encouraged to get moving for

the entire month to tackle the latter.So stop looking in the mirror, round up your friends

and enjoy a friendly game of sport.And instead of bragging over your ’tash while having

a beer with the boys afterwards, take the time to talkabout your health issues.One in every 23 South African men will develop pros-

tate cancer in his lifetime, while testicular cancer re-mains the most common cancer in men.As many as 510 000 men die from suicide globally each

year – which equates to one a minute – and over threemillions deaths each year are attributable to insufficientphysical activity.Growing impressive facial hair is not enough – it’s time

to tell your friends why you’re growing a moustache.Instead of just admiring each others’ hair growth, it’s

time to dealwith the big issues: Share your personal expe-riences of stress, anxiety and depression and open upabout your struggles with weight loss.It’s time to talk about the fear you felt at visiting the

doctor and encourage each other to get regular medicalcheck-ups.

Privileged classmade smart choicesLast week’s editorial comment (“Privi-lege”, People’s Post, 27 October) refers:The so-called privileged class got wherethey are by making smart decisions.One of the first was to elect leaders

who were competent instead of corrupt.The other was that they didn’t have

more children than they could providefor and those children had father figuresso that they didn’t have to join a gang totry and form an identity. This has led todrugs and violence. Are the so-calledprivileged to blame for that? Thisparticular social evil isn’t just a SouthAfrican problem but is a problem wherea society shirks its responsibility asparents.So now we come to education. Every-

one wants to be taught in his mothertongue. Unfortunately the mother tonguefor the majority is a recent phenomenonas it wasn’t until the 1820s that reverendMoffat of the London Missionary Societyactually created a written language fornon-white people.So more poor choices will eventually

lead to more poor people.As it is, the privileged class carry the

burden of providing RDP homes, freeelectricity and free water (why do youthink we pay so much?). Many pension-ers are being forced out of their homesbecause they can’t afford the rates thatgo up every year.What more are we supposed to do?And what a disaster our tertiary

education has become. When the minerswanted a 10% increase most peoplethought that was okay, but how are oureducators to get an increase if fees don’tgo up? The competent ones will findposts overseas and our universities willwither.Far too many people want to go to

university as they think this is the wayto a job where no actual work is in-volved. Traditionally, only a smallpercentage of people (the really bright)went to university; the rest got jobs.Unfortunately, over the past 20 years theeducation system has been a completefailure and the vast majority will onlyever be able to do menial tasks as theyaren’t able to read and write.

Neighbours can help on rubbish dayI have read the letter “Just minutesto clean up rubbish” by Lynn vanLeeve (People’s Post, 27 October) .May I take a moment to share what

we as residents do in Welcome Estate,Athlone.We have a very successful “bin

buddy” system, which basicallyentails: If you are working leave yourbin with a neighbour on his premises.Your neighbour who is home will

take out your bin on arrival of thecollection trucks and bring it onto hispremises until you get home.

This will alleviate unwantedvisitors in the road, leave zero messto clean up and avoid bin theft andthose characters who are there to seewho is home and who not. This willlead to fewer burglaries in the area.It is also a great way to get to

know who our neighbours are. Highwalls, electric fencing, big dogs, etc.are cutting off our neighbourlyinteractions.It is worth trying.

INGRID WYNGAARDAthlone

Guy Fawkes– worth it?Recently our neighbourhood has beendisturbed by the sound of firecrackers.This is an annual practice leading up

to Guy Fawkes Day on 5 November, aday that has its origin overseas and tomy mind has no importance in ourcommunities for a number of reasons.For one, already people and the poor

animals are traumatised by the sound offirecrackers as with some you cannotdifferentiate if from gunshots.Another reason on the day is that a

number of children stay away fromschool out of fear that mischievous oneswill smear them with old paint, eggs or,in some cases, dangerous objects betweentheir fingers. They have no regard if theyspoil your clothes or injure you.Last year I witnessed a young parent

with an axe in hand going after someyoungsters because his small child wassmeared as she was standing innocentlyat the gate.The morning after you notice a lot of

paint puddles and other markings on theroad, electric boxes and other council orprivate property, a complete eyesorewhich leads to many rands to “fix”.I know there is a Council bylaw that

prohibits these activities or the selling ofit and that it can happen at certainallocated areas but the law enforcementagencies are under-resourced, not proact-ive and simply don’t have the capacityfor it. People still sell these things atshops or stalls.I think the biggest factor in bringing

this down lies squarely at the feet ofparents.For example, we never bought our

children any toy guns or firecrackers.Admittedly, they are no angels but it wasa conscious decision as responsibleparents so that the positive practice canbe continued when they are parents.I am quite sure that if every parent

decides not to give in, we can lead amuch quieter life during this traumatisedtime.

After beatingGrassy Park Cru-saders 3-2 a few weeks ago,Westridge Yankees put in a

good performance against Silver-tree on Saturday to beat them 5-2at Groenewald Road sports field inSouthfield.Westridge took a 3-0 lead at the

start of the second innings throughhits by Casley Ripepi, Jude de Gee,Jesse Hugo and Veon Rix with Sil-vertree committing two errors.Silvertree bounced back in the

fourth innings withMiguelWilsonhitting in Marvin Mahoney (baseon balls) and Dayton Williams (hitby pitch) to bring the score 3-2 forWestridge going into the fifth in-nings.Westridge immediately extend-

ed its lead to 5-2 at the top of thefifth innings with hits by JaysonRipepi, Gwyn Petersen and CasleyRipepi. De Gee contributed with asacrifice bunt and Silvertree reliefpitcher Dean Jacobs did not helpby hitting two Westridge hitterswith his pitches.A combination of consistent

pitching, good hitting (seven hits),some skilful base stealing (five intotal) and effective bunting epito-mised the collective efforts fromWestridge.Jayson Ripepi (5 Inn, 23 BF, 2 H,

3 BB, 1 HP and 3 K) started for

Westridge Yankees in the absenceof preferred starter Luwayne duPlessis and was supported by hisbrother Kyle Ripepi (4 Inn, 14 BF,1 H, 1 BB and 3 K) who pitched thelast four innings. Petersen andCasley Ripepi (both 2 for 5) contri-buted well with the bat.

Roberts on moundSilvertree surprised when it

started with Anrich Roberts(4.1 Inn, 22 BF, 5 R, 5 H, 1 BB, 1 HPand 2 K) on the mound but he hadto be relieved by Dean Jacobs(2.2 Inn, 14 BF, 1 H, 2 HP and 6 K).Jacobswas also relieved byDaytonWilliams (2 Inn, 6 BF, 1 H, 1 HP,1 K).Silvertree only accumulated

tended a helping hand to Western Cape Cy-cling by coming on board as sponsor for thechampionship, following an urgent plea forfunding help in the lead-up to the event.Some 150 cyclists are expected to partici-

pate, including regional teams from Gaut-eng, the Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and theEastern Cape, as well as a large turnout oflocal riders.“Western Cape Cycling is delighted that

the Pedal Power Association has stepped upas the primary sponsor of the Omnium,”says Corné Bence, chairperson of WesternCape Cycling.The Western Province Cycling Associa-

tion, regional body for cycling in Cape Townand organiser of the track championship,sees the PPA as a key partner in developingcycling in the region.“ThePPA is committed to promote cycling

with recreational cycling and cycling advo-

cacy, we are really happy that we can assistcompetitive cyclists in this way,” he adds.“We wish Western Cape Cycling success
