Been since Easter weekend. Only rode 30 km of sani. Sucks big time.
And so the bantering starts. If you look at the heading it states that ( cyclist road and mtb are knobs). If you read some of the previous topics mtbers are blaming roadies and vice versa for the attitude motorist have against cyclist. This photos shows that we are all the same. Regarding the road, yes it is a bad road to travel on like that and yes the cars don't give a **** about us. Unfortunately it is one of the only ways to get to the Cradle coming from Clearwater side.
The argument is always, road this mtb that. It's all the same.
Not driving no, but I was cycling. Anybody who knows this road would know that the trucks use the yellow lane in order to keep the traffic flowing. There must have been about 15 cars behind the tanker before he could pass them and moved out the way. It only takes one idiot in his car lose his cool. Bad road to ride like this.
Riding back from the Cradle this morning I rode behind this lot. All the way up form Muldersdrift down Hendrik Potgieter. On two occasions the guy in black on the mtb drifted over the yellow line. Ones in front of a Double cab and the second time a LPG tanker. I would like to know if they have a death wish or just plain stupid. This is just one of the most dangerous roads on the Westrand.
The owner is currently oversees. He is due back next week and apparently they will be doing some maintenance then.
Going there tom, let's see. It's currently coming down hard in Harties.
I got the 2013 Scott 24, used my old Xt wheels and rebuild them on the rim. Had to replace the rear detailer to fit the bigger cassette.
Sorry man dis mos wat die heading se?
