J∆kk∆ls Posted December 3, 2014 Share Sheeshh ... commuted for the first time in months this moning, and almost get taken out by a ballie skipping a stop street 500m from my house. He proceeds to get out of his car and tries to moer me. I dunno what's wrong with me, I just rode off, I've been looking for a scrap for weeks, one presents itself and I'd rather just ride ... Man, I missed my bike!Good man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mudda Posted December 3, 2014 Share Lesson learnt: Commute every day to work is easy if you are prepared with: 1) Work Clothes2) Wash area3) Lockable safe bike area4) essential spares on the bike Biggest problem was shoes, until I just left a pair at work to change into. Clothes can fit into backPack when folded correctly. schizo and Pants Boy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clothes can fit into backPack when folded correctly.I've got a pack that I use specifically for commuting. I fit my laptop and work clothes into it. I'm very mindful of my effect on others in my office when it comes to commuting. We share a small bathroom between 7 people. When I commute I try to make sure I get to the office before all of my colleagues. Grab a quick shower and put on my work clothes. I make sure that I leave the bathroom floor 100% dry and put my bike in a spot in the office that gets in no-one's way. johanpre44, J∆kk∆ls and Warren_G 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaos_za Posted December 3, 2014 Share Get Gatorskins for your road bike (If you dont have them already) I was getting so many punctures at one stage with my old crappy R100 tires that i thought i was going to go insane from the patching of tubes every night, and road tubes seem to be a lot more finicky to get right because of the pressure, needless to say, i forked out for the gators and havent had a puncture or a pinch flat since!

JohnnyReggae Posted December 3, 2014 Share So how many commuting in Cape Town this week, I little windy hey.yesterday I caught a tail wind that pushed me for 3 km Had nice tail wind into work yesterday morning, got my best time in. But the ride home straight into a 50km/h wind was a slog of note ... but I still made a good time regardless of the wind. Legs seem to be getting stronger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrantRH Posted December 3, 2014 Share First commute back from work today. It's only 9kms, but 9kms of freedom. First commute in tomorrow. Left my car at work with a pair of clothes. Why have I waited so long to do this? mudda, Gandalf, johanpre44 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why have I waited so long to do this? Welcome and enjoy but most of all be safe out there. Think for every driver as most of them cant do it for themselves.
