River Rat Posted August 10, 2011 Share @Dangle no need to thank me it we who should be thanking you. It is quite easy to sit on the sidelines and chirp the odds but a totally different prospect getting stuck in. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Drongo Posted August 10, 2011 Share I thought you weren't involved. You emphatically told me so. Now you are? Which is it? Nathrix, what makes you think I'd want to have a beer with you? All you have been is abusive to me. Chap. He doesn't say he is involved anywhere there. Take a chill pill bro. Your'e giving Slaapstaders a bad rep there. And your getting The Explosive One all confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathrix Posted August 10, 2011 Share Can't attend, but my offer still stands.Thanks Bob If you could join us at one of the Bicycle Awareness rides or for a meeting in the near future we can discuss the website. Suggestions from hubbers of what they would like to see on the website will be most welcome and the best way of getting the website up and running. I thought you weren't involved. You emphatically told me so. Now you are? Which is it? What gave you that idea Gary? Nathrix, what makes you think I'd want to have a beer with you? All you have been is abusive to me. I don't even know if you drink beer. If not, you can have a coke zero or a coffee or something, I just though we can meet face to face at one of the MTB races in the Cape and have a chat? I also just made a suggestion of what you should do with all your money if you are that keen on helping as I don't have all the answers you have and pointed you in the right direction. If I sounded abusive I apologize profusely. Edited August 10, 2011 by nathrix™ ® © Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I sounded abusive I apologize profusely. I got the idea that you were involved because of the posts relating to awareness rides etc. You made it clear to me in a rather uncalled for post that you were not. Again, apologies for assuming so. Nathrix, I'm not keen to meet up with you. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggestions from hubbers of what they would like to see on the website will be most welcome and the best way of getting the website up and running.I was going to say how about a central database that will have serialnumber, bike type and contact name and number in it... And then it hit me - daar is klaar so iets en dit lok nie juis vliee nie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldron Posted August 10, 2011 Share Danglers and co. Like I've said before - awesome initiative. It's great to see Mr. Ordinary Citizen turning the words into actions that make cycling safer for eveyone. In terms of the Carte Blanche episode - I thnk it did what it was designed to do - raise awareness and speed up the already gathered momentum! To the "we want cross referenced and audited results before we part with our trillions" brigade: seriously? This is a small initiative run by a few caring individuals who have families, jobs etc. To expect what few hours they have to be spent on red tape and officialdom is silly. Cyclelab modified their online race entry site to simplify donations not to raid your email address and pull a Nigerian on your bank account. Get over the anality and donate some cash - surely you have friends or family on Jhb that would benefit from your generosity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyatt Earp Posted October 18, 2011 Share And so, what did happen to the money?Donated to CSA then?No more do I donate to Hub charities if there is no feedback. This is no HUB charity, and if you would like to speak to the P.I. to find out where the money went to, I will gladly give you his number.As for your contribution, rather keep it.As for the money, we were way short to pay the P.I. the thugs are out on bail again and bike jackings are on the increase and have now turned more violent than before.So dear Sepia, as I said, keep your money in your pocket, but don't be scared to actually pull your finger out of your ass to try and help with the initiative.

intern Posted October 18, 2011 Share After reading all of this, I am donating again. I do so not on the basis of audits or fancy questions, but because I give a rats about you guys. my friends, cycling there - and I trust Dangle, Dennis, Andy Masters and Andrew McLean sufficiently to let them do as they please with my donation. I would urge you to put aside your petty squabbles and do the same. It is for YOUR own good, it is an investment in YOUR safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
