Guest notmyname Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Yawncouldn't agree more. Clearly there's not enough to do today.
Nayr Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Yoh, what a read about a facility that no one can claim ownership to, have the privilege to use, and have to share it with other human beings, animals and plants. The way "THE SPRUIT" is being discussed highlights its similarities with a SHELL UltraCity.......specifically the men's ablution facilities. You have various options there to do your business.....piskrip, wall mounted urinal, toilet with seat up, toilet with seat down, wash basin and the odd fake pot plant for decorative purposes. If the piskrip is fully occupied you will go for the toilet......to the dismay of Joe Soap who has an eminent "number two", because some of us have sniper aim while others use the spray action. What about when you wear your HangTens......piskrip or toilet? Those late night partiers with a few doppe to many.......they will use anything. And what do you do if you want to assume the thought position on the white throne, just to have the previous user's business still floating around.......do you run after him and demand a courtesy service? What determines correct usage and operation policy? The Spruit is like a men's restroom. Various options to use, some definitely questionable. You can however not control the users actions or force your way of doing things on them.......it is not your rest room. If the user wants to whistle while taking a dump, that is their way. If it was however in your own home......feel free to take the necessary actions. However, I won't mind if the guy who used the toilet before me flushes the bowl with Domestos, remove all evidence of use, wipe the floor dry, fold the toilet paper, spray some Morning Spruit Mist air freshener and leave the latest Tread/Ride magazine. So this will be similar to not using the trails properly...... funny-peeing-urinals.jpg ......like riding in the wrong direction...... ......although this bloke does not seem to be bothered by it..... girl-using-urinal.jpgFantastic analogy. However my biggest gripe when going into the mens facilities at a Ultra City, and please understand that I have given this a lot of thought and it really boils my blood... why when I greet people doesn't everyone greet me back, i mean we are all kindred spirits using the same facility
Grebel Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Yawn couldn't agree more. Clearly there's not enough to do today. It's that holiday feeling.... It's obviously kicked in. It's like every day is Friday around here.....
RockCoach Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Not all the work done on the Spruit is illegal btw. Sections built for the Delta 6hr race and Juma were done with approval. I heard recently that a clockwise mtb trail has been approved for Delta. No idea who is building it though. A year or two ago, whilst working on the Delta line an old couple approached me and thanked me for creating the fun line for bicycles away from the walking path. "It doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out what you guys are trying to achieve" There are guys who are in touch with Parks and have been for the past 10 years about the development of sustainabl trails in The Koppies, Albersfarm and along the Spruit. Talks always seem to be going well until there is a new guy in office. But new contacts are occasionally made which can sometimes help to expedite the process...
Wyatt Earp Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Fantastic analogy. However my biggest gripe when going into the mens facilities at a Ultra City, and please understand that I have given this a lot of thought and it really boils my blood... why when I greet people doesn't everyone greet me back, i mean we are all kindred spirits using the same facility Please don't tell me that when you greet you actually shake hands ...................
Nayr Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Please don't tell me that when you great you actually shake hands ...................Haha no, just a nod!
SAGecko Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 why when I greet people doesn't everyone greet me back, i mean we are all kindred spirits using the same facility Hahhahahahahaah!!!!! Classic.
BarHugger Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Haha no, just a nod! Hopefully just a nod.......a nod, a wink and smile might just be too much friendliness for some okes......and if you use your HUB identity.......yoooooh

nolipoli Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 The best explanation yet.Let's see if the Noleen's and crowds can understand this logic .Listen up, Anton. You clearly missed the part where BarHugger wrote about cleaning up and spraying some toilet spray and leaving no trace - that is the respect I am talking about. On a trail, this would equate to not effing up the trails (more easily accomplished by actually following them). Just because I disagree with you does not mean that I don't understand. It just means that I disagree with you. Now that your wits have run out, you have tried to intimidate me by phoning me to threaten violence. I am not intimidated by you. I am not the twenty-year-old you thought I was. Take your aggression elsewhere guy. It is not appreciated around these parts.

Guest notmyname Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 you have tried to intimidate me by phoning me to threaten violence.Over the spruit? GOLLY, this has gone to far.
G00SE Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Over the spruit? GOLLY, this has gone to far. Anton resorting to threatening people over the phone and PM is nothing new... Seems like he does it to everyone who dares disagree with him.I think its because he knows karate and is dying to try his "karate chop" on someone outside the dojo...
nolipoli Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Over the spruit? GOLLY, this has gone to far.tell me about it...
