Spirog Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 A friend of mine is looking for a bus - Fourways to Rosebank and return. Anyone?
Big Phil Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Anyone know of or does a route from Woodmead/Buccleuch to JHB CBD (close to ABSA Towers). Louis Botha is the straight line route but a bit of a death trap with the taxis. Only alternative I can see is Katherine ---> Sandton Drive --> William Nicol --> Jan Smuts --> over Nelson Mandela bridge --> Ntemi Piliso --> left in Marshall Street. Any advice from fellow hubbers? Should I stick to using my car?

Make sure you're not in a hurry. cat-i 1
Allrounder Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Anyone going from brackenfell past N1 city
Reinhardt89 Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Hi all. Is anyone riding from Rondebosch/Newlands to CBD? I am looking at riding at about 07:00 to the CBD and then back at about 16:00.
Kirst01 Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Hi all. Is anyone riding from Rondebosch/Newlands to CBD? I am looking at riding at about 07:00 to the CBD and then back at about 16:00. 16.00 is a bit early, I would be keen, but only around 16.30/17.00. How busy is the route in the evenings does anyone know???
Reinhardt89 Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 16.00 is a bit early, I would be keen, but only around 16.30/17.00. How busy is the route in the evenings does anyone know???I'm very flexible, but depending on what time I get to work and of course my work load, my home time might vary. I will be starting to cycle to work from the 7th. Does the morning time suit you?
milky4130 Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 I'm doing N1 City Goodwood to Kenilworth via Pinelands & Milner Road. From 7:30am every alternative day, looking to make this a regular thing. Return trip from the Racecourse in Rosmead Avenue the same way departing at 5:30pm.

Would you be cycling road or over the mountain?
Reinhardt89 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I just saw a facebook link tweeted to Table Mountain Bikers with details of a bike bus from Rhodes Mem to Wembley Gym. Would you be cycling road or over the mountain?Preferably road, haha. But every now and then I might tackle the mountain if I want to exercise. My idea of commuting is just that, commuting, not training. Saving money on petrol and avoiding traffic. Awesome I'll check the page out!
Sepia Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 This all seems to be happening in JHB and CT.Durban anyone?

My idea of commuting is just that, commuting, not training. Saving money on petrol and avoiding traffic. Awesome I'll check the page out! I'm really looking to mountain bike, I'm more focused on using commuting as my training instead of going to a spinning class in the evening. I dont have FB, so not sure if there was any more responses to the suggestion. But I'm sure there has to be more people wanting to commute and avoid the ridiculous evening traffic!
Bokkiem Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 https://cdn.bikehub.co.za/forum/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/clap.gifWe already have our WhatsApp commuter bus from Table View to Town ... need to link it with this group too I think.
Bokkiem Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Hi Hairy, Im interested in joining the table view to town bike bye. I live close to Bayside so can meet you there at 6.45am. Where do you meet? I work in Woodstock ( at The boulevard office park... Searle street)... So also just want to check how close to my work I'll leave the group and if anyone else on the group also works in Woodstock. Hoping to join later this week once i know the drill. It must be Awsm going past the flamingoes at Woodbridge island. ????Thanks in advance Look forward to riding with youEmma0795295981
