  1. Right decision.Always ride K2C in a group .It sucks to get to the top of a climb and having to wait for your buddies in driving rain with no shelter.After 2019 the 1st thing I bought was a spsceblanket.Will be back next year.I ride it to enjoy the spectacular scenery.
  2. Bad accident on road near Eerste Steen,Blaauwberg yesterday afternoon.A head on crash and looks like cars ended up on cycle lane.Be careful out there.Nowhere is safe
  3. See you on the wa pad.Very under prepared.The sweeper truck might be an option
  4. Somebody was run over in Kalkbay about 2 days ago.Sounds like it could have been a cyclist .A truck was involved and it was late afternoon.Anybody know .City should reduce speedlimit to 30kmh and cyclists should ride in middle of the lane
  5. Learnt a lesson on todays sunset cruise."WEAR A F...N HELMET" Visited ER after a little face plant

  7. Did not want to take another chance on Hijack Alley this morning so I took Marine dr.It was a tight fit between the container and bulk fuel carriers
  8. Just watched a video of a hugh crash during the Vuelta a Burgos on You Tube.Frightening to see such a big crash at 60kmh caused by speedbump 300m before the finish
  9. 2.2 Bumpy section before 1st water point and between Buffeljachts and Swellendam
  10. Only need lights if cycling to start.By end of neutral zone as you ho onto gravel it will be light enough.Beware in neutral zone of high speeds and overtaking over white line with oncoming traffic

  15. First commute in a long time.Felt good .Took the cycle/ trash lane in to CT and FW de Klerk highway back.Marine dr Paardeneiland is a nightmare with lots of container trucks parked just inside the yellow line.Pretty scary
  16. Cyclists causing bad vibes in Kalkbay.Swearing,riding on pavements etc etc
  17. Newly erected on cycle lane in Paardeneiland to protect a drain cover.Excuse the urinator behind the cage
  18. After another rant on fb about the safety on the cycle lane from Paardeneiland to CBD I decided to have a look because I am keen to start commuting again.Some spots in Paardeneiland with glass on the lane.Near Lower Church st bridge the plants between cycle lane and bus lane have been trimmed down so you have a clear view of section ahead. Metro cops at the N1 underpass.Saw 3 commuters around 5.30 pm.Won't use it in the dark early AM ,but thinking about using it in the afternoon on way home.
  19. Did the cycle lane along the R27 from Blaauwberg rd to Sandown rd and it was a pleasure to ride.Weeds cleared,rubbish cleared,homeless have moved.Big up to 3 ladies from CCT cleaning along the route this morning
