Sammajoor Posted March 9, 2008 Share Just heard from my Wife that my son was in a crash. Appenrently a couple were crossing the road with a pram or carrycot, when the cyclists came down the road. Grabbed the kid and left the carrycot/pram in the middle of the road, Wayne hit it at speed and totalled the rear Derailleur and one of his STI's. Now knowing cyclesure it is going to take a week or two to fix and the junior tour is in two weeks. Now my argument is this how f*cken stupid must you be to leave a cot in the road with 700 cyclists coming down the road. And he is doing the junior tour luckily not broken anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwan Kemp Posted March 10, 2008 Share Same thing happened to me and a couple of other oaks coming into Hout Bay. Women actually looked upset that we wouldn't let her cross! Apparently you can be THAT stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
