The thread is called "cycle related......etc" not endurance cycle related. So while there may be less benefit from strength training for the endurance cyclist the track cyclist benefits from it much more so. Having said that you will find pro road riders doing weights and they've got the best advisors coaching them so i doubt they'd be advised to train in a gym with weights etc if it wasn't any benefit.
