Marc Pritzen and Tiffany Keep lead the overall men’s and women’s elite standings after last week’s SA Youth Road Cycling Championships in Westville, which was the 21st event in this year’s Road Cycling Series.
Jason Oosthuizen is second in the men’s standings, with Kent Main third.
Second and third for the women are Liezel Jordaan and Joanna van de Winkel.
Christiaan Klopper and Kelsey van Schoor, who won double silver in the youth champs, lead the junior men’s and women’s standings.
The series extracts results and allocates points based on these results in numerous categories from all of SA’s top one-day classics, multi-stage races and national road championships.
The next event is the Jock Classic on July 13.
