This is nothing other than a tender-motivated expenditure. Is just that Sowetan journalism sometimes lacks curiosity. An important question would have been "HOW MUCH EACH BYCYCLE COST?". An answer to this will be revealing. Clealry after one year some kids will take this home or they will be broken. Then is another tender again. By the end of say five years we will have spent far more than the osst of building a school or providing a more common means of transport. Bycycles take South Africa back to the ancient tiimes and tenderpreneures do not care a damn.

Voetsek- cycling will eliminate our ample backsides, increase the flow of oxygen to the brain, and will keep our kids active, instead of eating MacDonalds and KFCs without execise. SA is a morbidly obese country and something needs to be done, pronto
