Wie gaan koning kraai in die 125ste aanbieding van die w\u00eareldberoemde Paarl Boxing Day-baanfiets-uitdaging, wat vandeesmaand op Tweede Kersdag weer by die Faurestraat-stadion plaasvind?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die skilderagtige Bolandse dorpie Paarl is \u2019n raaisel in die sportw\u00eareld \u2013 hoofsaaklik om twee redes. Dit bied jaarliks die w\u00eareld se grootste skolerugbyderby tussen Paarl Gimnasium en Paarl Boys High aan, en dit bied ook jaarliks een van die w\u00eareld se grootste baanfietsrybyeenkomste op Tweede Kersdag aan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jy is dalk die beste in die w\u00eareld in \u2019n sekere baanfietsry-item, maar dit beteken nie veel vir die Paarl se getroue skare as jy tweede beste in die Paarl is nie!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Boland is ongetwyfeld die bakermat van baanfietsry in Suid-Afrika en het van die beste fietsryers opgelewer wat die sport nog gesien het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Paarl Boxing Day-baanfiets-uitdaging is die oudste byeenkoms in alle vorms van fietsry ter w\u00eareld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die byeenkoms het die heel eerste keer in 1897 plaasgevind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die byeenkoms het oor die jare fietsryers van oor die w\u00eareld heen na die Paarl gelok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die dag word afgesluit met die legendariese 25-myl-item en die wenner van die laaste wedren word ook as die wenner van die dag beskou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Benewens die ruim prysgeld is die Minnaar-wisseltrofee, wat uit 1908 dateer, ook op die spel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die vorige wenners by Boxing Day sluit al die bekende fietsryers in wat die sport in Suid-Afrika opgelewer het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bekende ryers se name wat op die Minnaar-trofee verskyn, sluit Dimension Data se Douglas Ryder en die SuperSport-kommentator Andrew McLean in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gary Beneke, Willie Engelbrecht en \u201cThe Idol\u201d Alan van Heerden het ook die titel ge\u00ebis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fietsry Suid-Afrika se lewenslange erepresident, wyle Gotty Hansen, het in 1959 en 1965 oorwinnings behaal terwyl Chris Willemse die titel in 1977 gewen het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVir ons was die oorwinning van Boxing Day asof ons \u2019n w\u00eareldtitel gewen het. As jy van die Boland-streek was, was dit selfs belangriker as om by World\u2019s te wen. My Tweede Kersdag-oorwinning was een van die hoogtepunte van my loopbaan,\u201d s\u00ea Willemse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kaartjies kos tussen R50 en R25 en kan gekoop word by www.itickets.co.za of op die dag by Faurestraat se hek.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
