I wonder how many people specially registered only to comment on this thread. We've heard from a few now, but how many are still waiting to air their opening comment?

Someone who actually tries to do something about the situation and not just jumps on the bandwagon and wants to hang the guys.

 

 

no one knows what really happened.

Yes it got violent but compared to other violence it really wasn't that bad, (No i do not condone it)

 

I am sure ALL of you have got really angry at motorist or anyone for that matter.

When you are in a mob and things start to happen its all too easy to join in.

 

Lets just wait to hear the story from more sides, not just the victim and a motorist who by the sounds of things was already negative towards cyclists.

 

Is every motor biker seen as a vigilante after that other guy got shot?

Dude seriously, you might be under the illusion that you don't. But on just about every post on this thread you ARE condoning violence.

Ai ai ai .. firstly I haven't said nada cause i was too busy trying to catch up

 

I hope they are held accountable for their actions. . How agro must one be to react like that. Not the first or last time a motorists gives a cyclist some lip.. and I must say sometimes cyclist deserve a bit of lip..

 

There is more than one way to deal with confrontation. . Violence like that not on. . Actually pretty bloody disgusting. . Hope those okes get shunned in future.

 

NAME AND SHAME IMO.

Copy of Letter I sent to Siphesihle Dube

 

 

Dear Amanda, PR, like comedy, is all about timing. Generally, a good time to not complain about the way 'taxi drivers' (as you've labeled anyone driving a van) treat cyclists is directly after a bunch of cyclists have violently attacked a taxi driver in an apparently unwarranted fashion.

 

Additionally, the cycling community would appreciate it if you didn't speak on their behalf anymore. Your enthusiasm is noted but you're not making us look good.

 

Also, proof read stuff before you hit the send button. Not only does it make your argument more coherent but even if the spelling and grammar is all correct you should be calm enough to realise sending it isn't a good idea by the time you've finished.
