Gasping

I take back what I said earlier, we don't agree on anything. Keep twisting them knickers..................

Fair point! Absolutely! Common decency never hurt anyone. I am from the East Rand - we understand common. So far we are almost all in agreement. Does this mean that this thread will now die?

Be visible' date=' use signals, and take up your rightful place on the road. You'll find that other road users respect you more![/quote'] Bruce, you are right. So is Eldron - I believe what was inferred in his post was that you need to ride defensively.

Icycling, I think you misread my post. If you want to have debate regarding the crime in this country, please start another thread, or even better, start an initiative and do something about it. Not having a go at you, just trying to defend my post.

It is made by GT - 'nuff said! Even as a Roadie, this looks nice. But as I said, GT is a marque, so whatever they make is good.

Come on Loopy, fair is fair.

Here we go. I just know I am going to get nailed for this, but what the heck. 1. Ride your bike as if all the cars around you are operated by blind, drunk, psychotic killers with a personal grudge against you. 2. Even if you are right with your lane choice, you could still be dead. This would make for a great epitaph on your tombstone "He was right" 3. If you like somewhere else, go there and be happy. 4. If someone else likes somewhere else, be happy for them that they have a place that makes them happy. 5. If two people keep agreeing on everything, one of them is unnecessary.

Nice bike and welcome to the clean side.

Thats me. Goodbye Hub. Gasping Dead.

I am not sitting and plotting my revenge. That is an assumption on your part. You asked a question and I answered it. Done and dusted. Nothing more, and nothing less. I did not confront him because there is the possibility that I could get a little emotional when I am standing up for what I believe in - my right to use the road to ride my bicycle. Face to face I would welcome the opportunity to put my point of view forward without getting physical. I have never started a fight in my life - finished a couple of them though. I was wondering when you would get involved on this thread. We might be a bunch of tossers, but we are a bunch. There are a lot of us who feel that the email was unnecessary, un-called for and threatening. Why should we take it? There are two sides to every story. I have made my opinions known on both sides. The way you are posting here makes me wonder if you agree with cyclists being run over. See what happens when someone gets half a story, a bee in their bonnet and then makes up nonsense? Come on Roly.

Measured posts? I do not agree with you there. When was the last time - a while ago, but I would still give it a go if need be.

I would. Drive carefully Scotty.

Scotty, can I recommend a few sites for you to visit? The pother alternative is for you to say something controversial/irritating/lame and see what happens

Capital Aytch - he can have it for free. I want nothing from him/her

Capecyclist, Looks like your memory is short as well. Please see my post from 16 September 2009 at 20h00 (08h00 P.M.) I will quote the last bit for you: " I stand by each and every post that I have put up here today. As I said, one of them is an out-and-out lie, but for the rest - I stand firm." I am not ducking out of anything. There is nothing I have done here or anywhere else that I am nervous about regarding investigation by anyone. Proud of myself? Not so much. So remembering that I said that I had lied about subscribing the gentleman to the web site, why then (and how) would I have entered my credit card details incorrectly? If I have not done this, why would the bank come looking for me? I thought you were arguing from an educated point of view - my bad! This is my last answer to you. About anything. Ever. You have tried to get under my skin and you have succeeded. Via Con Dios.

[quote=Big H Dump it in the Jukskei..... another floating turd will not even be noticed and then one can blame the Metro Councils. Down stream from any trout farms I hope.

Marsh, Dude/Dudette, what the hell?

Shopping packet' date=' now thats an idea....hang on where do you put the shopping packet afterwards? [/quote'] Put it back? Hey, I did not say it was a fool-proof idea (Couldn't be coming form me anyway), but maybe ride at the back of the bunch until you find a rubbish bin. Mind you, if the bunch is still there when you are done, you are in a VERY CLOSE KNIT group. Perhaps a little too close?
