I rode on friday...20km one way, but i need to find a safer route from moreletta park to centurion virgin active, the road past reitvlei dam is scary, i will rather stay on the dirt roads if possable.

try going past defence HQ then down towards Waterkloof Airforce Base.  (you can also cross the N1 at Waterkloof hoer skool, then cut accross the veld down to Pierre van Ryneveld, past Irene village mall and then over at Cornwell Hill)  Cut along the back of the base (past Pierre van Ryneveld)  Spits you out at the top end of centurion.  

 

ps use a mountain bike.

Ek bly 2km van die werk af, ek wil net nie in die aand laat huis toe ry in die reen nie, maar soos Spinnekop se, nuwe wile nuwe wile,

 

snap daar was 'n artikel in erens waar hulle gese het stort maak nie saak nie jou fietsry klere hou iets sos 75% van die sweet agter, so as jy mooi aantrek gaan jou baas eers nie weet jy het werk toe getrap nie, hehe

 

scary thought maar wys

OK, so who rode to work today?  Guess what, I DID!!!!

 

Just one close shave, once again with a mommy in a car, ignoring everything and everyone around her.  Stopped next to her at the next traffic light and was told that I was a "d*&k" and I should get off the road.  My reply, "I don't speak like that in front of my kid.". Then asked the kids not to do what your mommy does.  And off I went, feeling GREAT while (I hope) she was feeling like a kluts!

Staying in Waverley Pretoria - Working in Sandton.... 55km one way.... Old JHB road seems to be out of the question, the Taxis will run over you, stop reverse, steal what's not broken and drive off again....
