Rouxenator Posted October 18, 2018 Share Snot rocketing a double parked minibus taxi that forces you to ride in the oncoming traffic lane.... so satisfying. fanievb, Andrew_Smith, NickGM and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisF Posted October 18, 2018 Share Happy thoughts are that I have dropped 7kg's +- of body weight over the last few weeks, so picking that pack up and slinging it over my shoulder to walk up the stairs to the office is a lekker thought knowing it is close to what I do not carry around anymore. Few weeks back our office lift was out of action for a couple of days. Since then I have only used the lift to take the bike up and down, for typical trips to sites I walk the three flights of stairs to the basement parking. Actually getting used to walking up three flights of stairs ..... After sitting in traffic it actually gets the heart pumping and some fresh oxygen into the system doing the little walk before getting seated behind the computer .... Back on topic - A good hard pedal in the afternoon, followed by a quick dip in the pool, is still the BEST way to get rid of the days stress !

ChrisF Posted October 19, 2018 Share Had a monster of a time the last two weeks .... In office by 4 or 5am each day ... even on the days I commuted by bike. I am convinced it is only the time on the bike that kept me almost sane ..... Absolutely no better "release" after a marathon day in the office than PEDALING up a few hills .... actually managed some damn respectable times !! Moral of the story - commuting by bike is the all in one:- commute- gym- and stress release Herman V and cat-i 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted October 23, 2018 Share WHAT A WAY to start the day !! And then I had to "endure" a long drive for a site inspection ... Saw many cyclists in Bettiesbay .... they must have been wondering about this guy in a car waving and smiling at cyclists ...

Velouria Posted October 23, 2018 Share Is there anything more satisfying than passing car after car stuck in traffic? Especially when the decision to ride into work was a last minute one. I think I walked around with a smug look on my face for the whole day! Bateleur1, SilverRider, DJR and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Savage Posted October 23, 2018 Share Got knocked off the bike today by a school mom that didn’t look. Just drove me onto the pavement. I didn’t see you she said. Luckily I saw her pull across the road and thought she may not see me so scrubbed off speed. Sore wrist and scratches on the Dale. Carbon braking is not the best in an emergency.
