  1. Anybody who rides regularly in the Cradle, will be aware of the success of the Flap Away project run by Megan, who successfully lobbied the JRA to remove those deadly lane dividing flaps. She has now turned her attention to the state of the roads and trails in the Cradle to ensure that they are as safe as possible. To achieve this goal, she needs as much info and feedback as possible, from the community that rides in the Cradle. Please click on the link below and share your thoughts on the survey. It shouldn't take more than 30 seconds of your day and could help to make the cradle safer and more pleasant to ride. Click here
  2. The Aim of the Flap Away Campaign Hundreds of cyclists in Gauteng join together to enjoy a ride to the Cradle of Human Kind every weekend. After a number of accidents involving the 574 Swareflex Lane Dividers situated on the D540 and D374, it is felt that safety is being compromised. The aim of the Flap Away Campaign is to gain as much support as possible to have these removed. Why are the ‘flappers’… a problem? While the initial intension was to improve safety for cyclists on this busy route it has fallen short of expectations. This has resulted in some nasty pile ups. Furthermore, limited space does not allow for two cyclists to ride abreast enabling them to stay within the cycling lane. A large number of the ‘flappers’ are broken and difficult to see. What we need from you, the cyclist We need your support in removing these hazards. Please click on the following Google link http://goo.gl/forms/ZCI4cFNJka and complete the survey. In order for the campaign to succeed, we need as much support as possible. Spread the word, share the information with club members and friends as well as ‘like’ and ‘share’ our Facebook page – ‘Flap Away’. Testimonials regarding incidents or accidents that have occurred will add impetus to our initiative. The campaign will also endeavour to gain the support and backing of the local media. In order to have the necessary impact, this campaign needs to be finalised as soon as possible. Further queries can be sent to Megan Thorpe at meganthorpe@netactive.co.za. Together, let’s strive to make cycling safer in the Cradle!
