Cippo Posted March 9, 2017 Share I went riding to Camps Bay yesterday and ended up doing wind surfing with my bike going up Camps Bay drive and home through Foreshore and Woodstock. If.... the wind blows don't expect any respite from wind coming down from mountain along Atlantic seaboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane_Bosch Posted March 9, 2017 Share If.... the wind blows don't expect any respite from wind coming down from mountain along Atlantic seaboard. I often commute along that stretch in the afternoon. the strategy is to stay as close to the mountain side as possible. I was gonna ride my big boy bike to work today. But the wind is SCARY on a superbike. Cippo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent Posted March 9, 2017 Share Gonna be good riding with your dad- just keep him protected from the lunatics. I rode my 10th Argus with my Dad - his 10th too - deep into his 70s as well - was a fun ride - would have been faster but pushing me not allowed by the old man - his ride, his rules. Good luck and best wishes to both of you for a safe ride. just making a correction Edited March 9, 2017 by Btus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TALUS Posted March 9, 2017 Share How does weather affect an expo that is indoors? Or is this cape speak for : "we are not ready yet"? HBO, VolkAdik and DJR 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V12man Posted March 9, 2017 Share How does weather affect an expo that is indoors? Or is this cape speak for : "we are not ready yet"? Sounds like an excuse for something to me... they have had wind on the day of the expo before..... and didn't open late.... TALUS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honkdonk Posted March 9, 2017 Share Cape Town locals speak up... When the wind howls like it is (apparently) at the moment, what are the chances of it 'blowing out' come Sunday against all predictions..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J∆kk∆ls Posted March 9, 2017 Share Usually there are some racetec people at the start of the races and you can get a new chip or borrow one. It happened to me once and I was able to "rent" one that I gave back afterwards and they said Agg don't worry about paying. Sent from my LG-H735 using TapatalkI only realized I was missing my tag going up Helshoogte. One of the event personnel checking bikes before entering the start shoot also missed it. A mistake I will never repeat! Edited March 9, 2017 by J∆kk∆ls Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
