  8. anyone looking for a team entry for the 2 day B+B? I have one for sale.....
  9. next critical mass ride is on Friday 26th October - meet 5.30pm for ride at 6pm, from Moses Mabhida Stadium.... anyone keen to dress up a bit? That would be cool, and a good warmup for Halloween....
  10. I don't agree that "this will never change"....that's a defeatist attitude, that will never make an impact on the world....maybe I am too much of an idealist, but I believe we have a DUTY to get this to change....
  11. I had a very frustrating ride experience on Heritage day, when I joined a group on a 2-3 hr ride from the Durban North area.... My main issue with the group was that they were not at all interested in stopping at red traffic lights! They treated all of these as yield signs, checking for approaching traffic, then rolling through with 20 bikes, when the coast looked clear.... I immediately voiced my unhappiness, from the rear of the pack, and personally stopped at every red, then caught the group a few seconds after each stop....but, this made little or no impression on these cyclists, who appeared to be experienced and competitive riders. I tried making the point that we have a bad reputation, and that they are making it worse, but I was not heeded, even when there was a near miss when, coming through town, some cyclist had to brake hard and skid, to avoid being taken out by a car going through green at an intersection, after the lead riders had cruised through red! Though I repeatedly made the point that none of the riders would shoot red if they were driving their own car, and that if we wanted to be taken seriously as equal road users, we would have to obey all road rules, not just the ones we wanted to, or when we wanted to..... Embarrassingly, I continued to ride with the group, trying constantly in vain to influence them, but I will not ride with them again..... If we want to create opportunities for more people to start riding, and for those who are already riding to stay safe, we have an obligation to diligently follow ALL road rules, and to set a positive example for others to follow - one that will also create a helpful relationship between motorists and cyclists.....lets start by stopping at red traffic lights.....
  12. 1 more sleep, peeps! Join this fantastic celebration of the bike, and the city....!
  13. Next ride is Friday 28 Sept - lets see if we can do 100 riders again....

  15. Most years have twelve full moons that occur approximately monthly. In addition to those twelve full lunar cycles, each solar calendar year contains roughly eleven days more than the lunar year of 12 lunations. The extra days accumulate, so every two or three years (7 times in the 19-year Metonic cycle), there is an extra full moon. the next blue moon is in 2015 so dont miss this ride! Dress code: Blue!
