Isn't she just an awesome athlete? Unbeaten in any road race for 2001 and three times successive Argus winner! Guess she can keep the trophy now!

I just wish one could get a decent picture somewhere. I would like to show some of my friends living overseas, but usually you only get her working hard on her bike. I think she is one of the best cyclists in South Africa. I would love to see her working in a team environment on a US/European tour.

Nicholas, get in line, everyone wants to be second, but you'll have to be one HELL of a cyclist to keep up with that bunch of dynamite!

The ladies start with the mens C-group, and from what I have heared, she gave alot of guys some serious punishment going up Ou Kaapse. This year she finished about 5 minutes ahead of the second placed lady! Thats serious riding in my book.

She's pretty hot, but Domique Donner is even better looking.
But yes Anriette is one hell of an athlete and is doing us proud. |

Her average speed over the Argus distance (109km) was almost 43 km\h! You'll need to do some serious training to keep up with her!

She finished 10th overall in the C Bunch . And we are all aware that the C Bunch consist of some serious quality riders. I think she is a better road cyclist then Anke Erlank. It could be different if she only concentrate on cycling instead of running and swimming. But she's awesome too. |

If only she got more international exposure. She's ranked 179 on The UCI Womens Rankings. I reckon she's got the right attitude to kick a few of the top international ladies butts.
