MrJacques Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 I've cycled at Groenkloof before while visiting some relatives in Pretoria. At one section an ostrich was blocking the track. Fortunately it wasn't aggressive and moved away, but for a moment I thought I would have to defend myself - those birds are fast and have quite a kick.
