\u2019n Plaaslike fietsryer, Daniyal Matthews, het die dag n\u00e1 Kersfees verras toe hy ervare fietsryers laat les ops\u00ea en die 25-myl-fietsren by die 124ste Boxing Day-baanfietsrybyeenkoms in die Paarl gewen het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit is tot dusver die grootste oorwinning van die 23-jarige Matthews se fietsry-loopbaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy is oor die eindstreep gevolg deur twee gesoute ryers, Thys Oosthuizen en Mario Nell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthews was baie tevrede met sy oorwinning en s\u00ea hy was nie sy span, Enza, se eerste keuse om di\u00e9 wedren te wen nie, maar het vroeg in die ren \u2019n een- rondte voorsprong gekry, wat die dinamika verander het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk moes toe die verantwoordelikheid op my skouers neem om die oorwinning te bewerkstellig.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthews is in Kaapstad gebore en het aan Wynberg Boys\u2019 High skoolgegaan, waarna hy sy BSc-graad in toegepaste wiskunde en statistiek deur Unisa gestudeer het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die jong fietsry-sensasie s\u00ea hy het van Kaapstad af na die Paarl hoofsaaklik as gevolg van die fietskapingsprobleem in Kaapstad verhuis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk is al voorheen deur twee bendes gejaag terwyl ek gery het, en dit is nie lekker om te alle tye op die uitkyk te moet wees terwyl ek elke dag ure lank oefen nie,\u201d verduidelik Matthews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAfgesien van veiligheid, het die Paarl \u2019n heerlike ontspanne atmosfeer, meer respekvolle motorbestuurders en baie roetes en bergpasse, wat dit ideaal vir fietsry maak.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthews is geen vreemdeling in die Boxing Day-fietsren nie. Hy het immers van kindsbeen af hier langs die baan gesit en kyk hoe sy pa, Abdul Davids, trap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het dikwels langs die baan gesit en my pa dopgehou en mettertyd besluit ek wil \u2019n professionele fietsryer word.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Franschhoeker Nolan Hoffman, \u2019n sewemalige kampioen by di\u00e9 byeenkoms, het vroeg \u2019n rondte agtergeraak, maar het tot die einde bly veg. Jordan September het die 1-myl-uitnodigingswedren gewen en Matthew Lester het sy talent in die Kierin gewys. Graeme Ockhuis was tweede en Linwill Jansen derde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lester volg in die voetspore van sy oupa Jack en sy pa, Norman, wat albei Suid-Afrika in baanfietsry verteenwoordig het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wynand Hofmeyr het sy staal in die 10-km-puntewedren gewys toe hy Hoffman net-net geklop het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jamie Moses het derde ge\u00ebindig.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
