The beginning

When I was a little child my father told me something, he told me once that if I keep on, I can maybe be the best in the world, just like LANCE ARMSTONG. My father Jacques Redelinghuys use to practice with me, but he hurt his leg. Hopefully we can practice together soon again. I must say he gave me a very strong mind. He told me to keep on, no matter how it hurts, keep your head in the game. Ignore the pain, shut up, and keep on going. Thanks dad for being with me all the time.

First Time In A Long Time

Being sick for about 2 weeks now with a minor chest infection unable to train, sitting on the couch I remembered this blog I started way back... Reading through my few posts as a young boy brought back a lot of memories from that time.. how easy everything was vs now.  Unfortunately due to financial problems many years ago, my cycling journey ended and nothing could be done, thats life.  But about 3 years ago in my second last year of school, my father made a decision. To leave the place I grew up in and move to Pretoria.  In June 2015 I was registered at Affies. Best thing that happend to me in my life. I have an emotional relationship with that school which most won't understand, but the day I started there, it was made possible for me to start my passion again. In June 2015, my life changed and I had a goal in cycling again. In the last 3 years I met a remarkable amount of people, friends.  The relationships I have today, I would want to have for ever. A friend of mine once s
