Wil6 Posted August 23, 2012 Share How do you guys manage to train/ride there with all the air pollution?We did a fun ride there the other day there when I visited my friend in Jozi and my lungs were burning from all the crap in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Face Plant Posted August 23, 2012 Share we smoke from a young age to protect our lungs seriously though, the air pollution isn't that bad no more .. with all the ISO 14000 regulations, the factories monitor their emissions quiet well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Face Plant Posted August 23, 2012 Share @ Hein we have a 20km loop right in town that we ride alot in the week, convenient as you can ride from home, on weekends there are alot of options to consider, where about in Vanderbijl are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morwa Posted August 24, 2012 Share At least we have bragging rights on the fact that we can see what we breathe. Not that bad at the moment.....and a huge improvement on the air quality in the last 10 years. Especially from the industries side......but we will alway sit with the domestic coal burning from the informal settlements.... that is actually the biggest problem! Back to riding..... We are going to do a 80km on Saturday (dirt road between the farms in the region). LSD to get hours on the saddle for the Karoo-to-Coast ride on the 23rd of Sept. Welcome to join... Always cold beer afterwards! Edited August 24, 2012 by Morwa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTB Hein Posted September 20, 2012 Share Howzit guys. I am planning on doing a 2 to 3 hour ride this weekend from Vanderbijlpark (haven’t decided where to yet). Anyone want to join?
