Guest Omega Man Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I've noticed a metro police or security vehicle patrolling every time I've been on the Milnerton-Cape Town cycle lane this week. It's been good to see. DJR 1
DJR Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Well, today I learnt that riding down-tube shifters in the traffic, takes somewhat more than the normal forward thinking, especially with manhole covers and potholes to avoid as well! Spidey Sense had to work overtime!

Spidey Sense had to work overtime!Haha. Last night I rode my motorcycle home from Greenpoint in the howling South Easter. I kept hearing what I thought was the bike backfiring but it was actually my butt slamming shut every time the wind caught my bike. Beattbox and Cois 2
divernick Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Today I learned to make sure I have work shoes at work. Luckily my cycling shoes are pretty subtle...... Gandalf, SimpleDom and Cargyrl 3
Hairy Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Today I learned to make sure I have work shoes at work. Luckily my cycling shoes are pretty subtle......fortunately we don't have that problem in our office .... we just walk barefoot then .... did I mention shorts are order of the day too in summer J∆kk∆ls 1
J∆kk∆ls Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Riding steel instead of carbon helps fight the Cape Dr.But today Im riding carbon in 40 km/h wind (idiot)
Cois Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 So glad I had to take the motorbike to work. Got caught about 4 km from work in a lekker rain session. But nothing close to the rain we just had for the past 40 minutes or so.
Bernard Horn Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Some rider(not a commuter) will not learn that it is far safer on the cycle path between Lagoon beach and Steven Johnson cars.They would much rather ride slowly and almost in the gutter on Marine Dr.than use the lekka cycle path.Forcing cars to slow down and move over into the next lane. The mind boggles! Hairy 1
DJR Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 First time this year I got forced to take the diesel donkey to work......and for such a stupid reason too. I seriously need a haircut and there is no way in hell I'm going to leave any of my bikes outside of Cavendish Square, locked or not! Perhaps that is a sign that I need another bike......some crappy looking, but beautifully running single speed perhaps? Or a fold-up? J∆kk∆ls, Bernard Horn and SimpleDom 3
I FLY Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Commuting by bike past the "Back to School" traffic chaos at our local school was very satisfying SimpleDom, J∆kk∆ls, SilverRider and 2 others 5

Far safer. I also use an old bike not worth much.
DJR Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 I normally lock the bicycle up inside the parking garage. Far safer. I also use an old bike not worth much. That is a good idea, especially if you lock it near one of the lobby / lift areas where there is cctv cameras. Just ride into the parking garage, skirt around the boom and Bob's your uncle. Or take a ticket? I don't really mind paying if it is for the security. That's what I'll do next time. Those bike racks outside just looked to much like a bike take-away for my liking.

Crappy looking bike which runs beautifully and doesn't get offended when I chain it to a pole.
