Hairy Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 very heated debates happening on cape talk right now. lots of angry motorists... apparently cyclists are stupid.don't worry about it, they must be the same lot that comment on news24 articles RE cyclists.
Red Zone Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 very heated debates happening on cape talk right now. lots of angry motorists... apparently cyclists are stupid.That's the problem, the motorists are angry and cyclists are dying as a result. We have the 1 m law, with three deaths on our roads in the last month lets see if the Courts use the force of the 1 m law to increase the severity of sentences to the drivers of those vehicles that kill cyclists.
popcorn_skollie Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 yea, its been an on and off topic all day...why can't mense be more tolerant and patient
Louzy Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 what interests me is... why do cyclists and sharing the roads only become a problem when one is killed... why are cyclists not protected ALL the time, the law needs to be enforced... i know this has been discussed here a million times but its just so frustrating. i ride that road, and so does my wife... loads of people with families ride that road... why do people not care? anyways... have a good weekend, im going for a ride.

Youcan pick them out of a line up anywhere in the world. They will be the ones j-walking in Singapore, talking loudly while buying dope in Amsterdam, drunker than a German at Oktoberfest, and shagging the biggest sheep in a hilux in NZ. doff is just how we roll.
Bloukrans Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Did not listen went for a lekker ride in Tokai. What was John Maytham views
GoLefty!! Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Not John Maytham's views, the general public has some really warped ideas. Yes we live among them
porqui Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 He said he was somewhere in the middle.So was I.Some idiots on both sides.
Bloukrans Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Agree I have seen some idiotic cyclists on my rides.
Slowbee Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 The discussion was informative. Especially how those in cars feel about what cyclists being on roads that the car drivers themselves feel unsafe on.
PhilipV Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 I for one can't wait for Argus season to be over and there to be less cyclists on the road. A lot of cyclists are very selfish and make me ashamed of saying I'm a cyclist. We are our own worst enemy.
Prince Albert Cycles Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 I am afraid I have to agree with PhillipV .Just come from a ride caught up with 5 mtbikers riding next to each other on a tar road .
