Please note the bike type, so this is NOT a roadie thing.

Looks like an All Blacks solute to our rugby team  :ph34r:

You edited your post once you got flamed, so I unedited it for you for the sake of science, see above.

 

Having said that, I thought that I would put my life on the line in an experiment to help prove your point of view.

 

Last week, I got dressed in full black, black shirt, black bib, black shoes, black socks, black helmet, black bottles(the tops) and black bike.

 

I went out in the morning when the light was similar to what it would have been at 3pm, just to set the baseline.

 

I went and rode around the busiest and most dangerous roads in JHB, William Nicol, Republic, JanSmuts, Main, Beyers etc, in traffic here is the Strava map.

For 80km and 3h30, I did what you paint as the most dangerous thing ever. I however did obey the road rules, so your statement that Ninja Clad Roadies are the same people who never obey the rules was also dispelled,

 

Having done that, I can catergorically state, that I was not killed in any way shape or form.

 

So in conclusion the only thing that we can deduce from this is that you should never rant before thinking again and that you deserve the what I present to you below!

Looks like you're riding in the middle of the road while flipping a bird :whistling:

I rode 90ks this weekend - well 65 of them, with a relative from the UK - he was all in black - matte black Canondale, matte black Catlike Helmet and kit, except the shoes which were white, no lights. He just escaped censure...

Looking a bit pale in the face there, you should maybe go see a Doc about that!
