Die Weskus-fietsryvereniging het onlangs aan die jaarlikse jeugfees in Oudtshoorn deelgeneem, en vanjaar het veral die Weskus se groentjies geskitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Verskeie plaaslike jong fietsryers van Saldanha, Hopefield, Moorreesburg, Darling, Piketberg en Riebeeck-Wes het die Weskus gaan verteenwoordig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Weskus-fietsryvereniging het hierdie jongmense ten bate van die bevordering van fietsry in die streek na die fees vergesel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Jan Faroe, voorsitter van die vereniging, is die Weskus-streek nie sonder sy uitdagings nie, maar dit is wonderlik om veral die groentjies in aksie te sien. \u201cDie streek is so wyd en dikwels is dit slegs by sulke geleenthede wat die ryers saam ry. Vervoer is \u2019n groot uitgawe en vir al die fietsryers om saam te oefen, is nie altyd moontlik nie,\u201d verduidelik hy. Faroe s\u00ea egter die fietsryers het geensins teruggestaan vir die ander streke nie en aan die pad-resies, span-tydtoets, MTB-tydtoets en MTB-ovaalbaanrenne deelgeneem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVier fietsryers van die groep was voorheen by die fees, maar vir die res \u2013 19 van hulle \u2013 was die hele ervaring \u2019n eerste. Almal is sommer weer gereed om aan volgende jaar se fees deel te neem. Meer dissipline is gewis aan die orde van die dag wanneer dit by oefen kom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit was goed vir hulle om die struktuur van die fees sowel as die vlak van fietsry in lewende lywe te sien,\u201d meen hy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die groentjies het egter nie met le\u00eb hande huis toe gekeer nie. Jean-Mare Frederiks (o.13) het twee silwermedaljes verower. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Faroe s\u00ea Jean-Mare se prestasie is veral verblydend omdat so min meisies lid van die vereniging is. \u201cOns wil baie meer meisies en vroue betrokke kry. Die skoner geslag het geen rede om nie deel van die sport te wees nie en fietsry bied so baie geleenthede vir alle fietsryers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBenewens fietsry self bied die sport ook \u2019n sosiale aspek, en met die toer na verskeie kompetisies is dit ook \u2019n manier vir Weskus-kinders om meer van die provinsie en die land te sien,\u201d vertel Faroe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit was ook die geval in Oudtshoorn. N\u00e1 al die intensiewe fietsry-aktiwiteite het die groep \u2019n opvoedkundige uitstappie na die Kango-grotte onderneem. Dit was vir baie van die kinders \u2019n asemrowende geleentheid en hulle het dit baie geniet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Faroe bedank die ouers wat die kinders in staat gestel het om dit by te woon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie Nedbank-sporttrust het ook \u2019n baie groot bydrae vir hierdie aangeleentheid gelewer. Die vereniging wil fietsryklubs aanmoedig om te affilieer om sodoende alle jong fietsryers die geleentheid te bied om blootstelling aan hierdie soort geleenthede te bekom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns versoek ook die fietsrygemeenskap om steun in die vorm van opleiding vir pad-, bergfiets- en BMX-kategorie\u00eb te bied.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Faroe s\u00ea fietsry gaan gebuk onder veral \u2019n tekort aan tydhouers, baanbeamptes en ander amptenare om by fietsrenne te help. Belangstellendes kan Faroe by 078 854 9867 kontak.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
