Danger Dassie Posted March 5, 2015 Share This close to the event with the volume of logistics etc .... it's easy to second guess ANY decision the organisers would have made. Maybe they actually should have just cancelled the event, full stop. Because no matter what change or route decisions, there would be bitching that they should have, could have. If people are THAT precious about it, get dressed in full fire fighting gear and ride the 47kays. Tumbleweed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I look at the situation, the more the decision makes sense. deanbean, Danger Dassie, Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted March 5, 2015 Share ................Amazing how so many people are getting their panties in a knot, and it seems like its mostly the Slaapstad guys It's mainly because a lot of people can type faster than they can read or think.

Sven137 Posted March 5, 2015 Share AbsofrickenlutelyJust because you think you're right doesn't make you right and to spew venom at other opinions is, childish Jissus, but there are many stupid, ignorant selfish, uncaring, self centered, short sighted, dumb arseholes that cycle. Reading some of the posts above, I feel ashamed for their sake! Please, all of you negativity suckers, stay at home on Sunday and watch the rest of us do an amazing, unique, friendly, positive ride in solidarity with each other, Cape Town and its' fire fighters.

I know you have read all the posts (and added your vote) 1. Did my point come across that badly ? 2. Was it wrong to expect more of them than a shortened route ?
