what is the accepted etiquette/protocol on this? I would be mortified if I was flashing a full-moon brown eye to all poor and unsuspecting motorists and cyclist coming up behind me and god knows, I have observed a few myself. The problem is you generally really don't really know until your bib is transparent when you put it on, and by then you have been broadcasting your A-hole far and wide. We need some kind of accepted code or phrase to alert other riders with minimal embarrassment and humiliation

😂 there is a direct correlation between okes who spend a lot of time on this site with the inability to take the lightest of rebukes. Case in point right here. No need to get all ad hominem now. Eat a cookie, go for a ride before being triggered to hit reply

levity - look it up

spat my coffee out - top comment but also, yassus man, we are making fun of something that is proper F-TAP. I guess its the desperation of knowing that little can be done about it in SA, realistically, so we resort to levity. If JP can't make Capetonians drive properly, then who will take on the rest of the country with any effectiveness? I despair about this one

you forgot the constantia housewives in the merc 4 x 4 - dont even get me started on those special karens. From time to time when i venture over the mountain (Deep South lingo for going outside of kommetjie, noordhoek or fish hoek) I encounter these entitled psychos and their white-knuckle driving fetching their lovely kids from bishops or Rhenish

im also in the deep south - are you one of the okes that overtakes on OKSW? Those are special!

my 2 cents - since moving to CPT 3 years ago, it still astounds me how vindictively and just generally @$$holey the lot of you people drive. Joburg drivers drive woes, no doubt, and the disregard for traffic laws (red lights, stop streets, one-ways etc) wears you down in Joburg. But this CPT lot, yoh, yoh, yoh. They are angry and mean-spirited to a person, and no, this is not the exception. Thank heavens i do not have a daily commute that puts me in a car twice a day - I would likely be in jail by now.

small indulgence, apologies for ignorance - who are the commentators on the DSTV TDF feed?

that escalated quickly

Foot up, post-op - boredom sinking in. What are your favorite audiobook sources/sites? I really don't like the endless push towards subscription services - are there any decent 1-off places to buy or get audiobooks? Are there any sources of free books that are not copyrighted? all suggestions appreciated

this is worn out now

ag please man - he has tried to make some pretty nuanced and well articulated points, and for once not jumped straight onto the outrage mill. Dial down the judgment and drama, as there are some issues raised worth considering. Nobody is "a friend of predators" that comment alone is ill considered

whatever happens, like the rabbit in Snatch, he's proper f###ed, Turkish

I need to shorten a carbon seatpost to accommodate a shorter rider - what are the best tools to use for this? Can I use a haksaw? Any advice welcome!
