Lone One, do you work in CT or SW?

We are planning on renting initially. What about kids and schools etc?

So it appears that things are on the up in CT.

Tankman so where did you park the vehicle? Lone One, why did you move or leave Jozi?

Is there no bus service available

Hi All, You guys are scaring me with the wind stories. I am originall from PE. That is disappointing that a commute would be so difficult. Why is the business express the only option , are the normal option that bad.

To all Somerset West commuters. I have read a couple of posts here from Somerset west commuters. The family and I have chance to relocate to CT and would like to stay in Somerset West. I am considering commuting, but realised after 3 years of the bike what is realistic, so my question. What train service/bus service are available that would leave a 20km commute to Cape Town CBD. Keeping in mind that I am resident of Gauteng and would lik have specifics regarding location and if possible street names. Gratefully

Great thread... with the little ones not geting time to ride without it being to checkers baby seat. Any advice on spare wheel building cost?

Guys, Have any of you taken kiddies on MTB race?? Say on those Giant rear carriers?? Opinion

Had to shop for rear derailleur - last minute. Cocked up mine whilst cycling with my boy

RIP, this shocking. My wife and I did last christmas shopping at Ballito Mall and still pointed him out to my wife and son.

Great sponsor, met eish (not klippies eish)

Damn good pies

Anybody know of decently priced Bibs in JHB/PTA region. See at cyclelab they have Craft for decent price. Looking for R599 and less.

It's on tomorrow night again at 21:30 SS6 - Just make sure

Not bad price

I also think it is. Maybe some saving on the @#$%ken toll fees, petrol prices and some exercise. As I nowadays can't even call myself a "Weekend Warrior".

This what I'm aiming for http://maps.google.co.za/maps/ms?msid=213926053884419820617.0004bbaa8258cb562185b&msa=0&ll=-26.14496,28.065605&spn=0.280457,0.528374

So here is the story. Found out that I can park my car for R70 per month, and then to use our gym for showering and twice a week for spinning will cost R100. Honestly is this worth the effort for a 20km commute in the morning and 20km in afternoon.

I have the Targus Campus, was just wondering on the waterproofing. Or maybe a should start riding faster to maybe try to avoid the rain.

I have a targus, but for the normal 15". I'm worried about waterproof and that type of thing.

Anybody got new ideas, on backpacks for commuting. Something that will take t least your work clothes??

I've got a feeling the Northgate might well be my "safest" bet

Enough to never get out of bed, but I travel by car about 65km one way. But the Beyers Naude trafiic and the Olifants fontein or Malibongwe traffic is crazy. So wanna start with half way.

Also not a bad idea. I would suppose these are relatively safe?
