rouxtjie Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 I think you are gonna "roux" the day you asked to be educated....I actually would sincerely love to know....do they regularly travel to mankele maybe in search for gravity
rouxtjie Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 We also own these things like cars that take us to magical places like KZN and a place called The Holey Trails in the eastern Free State. And then there is this little country in Europe called France. I think we can use our big boy bikes there.Cool....I was actually really wondering, I know patches did sani on his monstertruck, but I never see them anywhere but the spruit....now I know
SwissVan Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 (edited) All I want to know is: is it safe to walk my dog and child on the Spruit? Should I put both on leashes? Sounds like the Mountain bikers need to a leash... Edited August 26, 2013 by SwissVan

DR ◣◢ Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Cool....I was actually really wondering, I know patches did sani on his monstertruck, but I never see them anywhere but the spruit....now I know I would do the same if I ever rode B&B or Sani or whatever. It would be really stupid of any of us to buy a 150-180mm bike to ride on the spruit alone. The spruit for me is a chilled outing with the dogs, mates, wife, friends etc to have some fun. No serious riding ever happens there. Strava KOMs on there are for assholes who have not sense of respect for other trail users. The spruit is free for all and should be enjoyed by all.

jcmeyerSS Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 No really... I did... my newest addition is a 120mm steel hardtail for commuting and spruit riding Dude if you got a Niner ROS i might have to stab you with a spoke.
rouxtjie Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Dude if you got a Niner ROS i might have to stab you with a spoke.+1...now that is a bike
patches Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Dude if you got a Niner ROS i might have to stab you with a spoke. Nope... small wheels... a Cotic Soul... so no stabbing please
rouxtjie Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Nope... small wheels... a Cotic Soul... so no stabbing please Lekker bikes those cotic's
Wayne Potgieter Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Honestly, all of this makes me cringe. So many other road users hate cyclists. just read the Tazer thread. You would think we would all stick together as a group. Oh well, just another thing on this planet i dont understand. Reminds me of a song. SomeBloke 1
Little Fish Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 (edited) This is what I saw on the spruit this weekend:One of SA's most famous singers walking her dog, she stopped us to have a chat about how awesome it is & to ask some questions because she just moved to the area & wants to get her bike sorted out so she can ride.A lot of guys & girls enjoying the jumps & stuff built by Hubbers so that people can have fun & learn some new skills along the spruit.Moms, Dads, kids cycling along together, doing something better than sitting in front of the TV on the weekend. Some of them even had family shirts Guys & girls of every age - Some wearing lycra, some wearing baggies - didnt really matter because 95% of them greeted us with a smile/wave/nod/hello.Two walkers with their dogs helping a cyclist whose dog had collapsed in the heat.While they sat with the dog in the shade, he went back to get his car & every cyclist that rode by, slowed down to comment on the dogs, or just to say hello.A girl who fell off one of the bridges in Delta & into the river - again, every cyclist that rode past while she sorted herself out, stopped to ask if they could help & if she was OK.I also saw a couple of hobos sleeping in the sun, and a guy that i saw beating the cr@p out of his girlfriend on the spruit a few months ago, walking his dogs with his new girlfriend.... So my point is, the spruit is just like life....you get some A-holes but we really shouldnt let them spoil something that is actually pretty cool overall.So, like the wise Mr Potgieter said - why dont we all just respect or at least accept each other's differences & just appreciate the fact that we are all "cyclists"?
