Allrounder Posted February 13, 2017 Share Good idea Smurfy! Hope they don't first check to see whether he was a PPA member - I saw recently on their website that Delene was a PPA member. For the PPA, I think it is the right thing to do!No need to wonder bloukrans. (its not bad news. just not my place to share.) Bloukrans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allrounder Posted February 13, 2017 Share Liz says that they are not arranging anything, just supporting. They will also have representation at the ride. Bloukrans and Patchelicious 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder why the are only getting involved with the one and not the other. i Allrounder and Patchelicious 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allrounder Posted February 13, 2017 Share Hi Smurfy, I am not sure. As the lady explained they only send reps to these events, and advertise. Patchelicious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren_G Posted February 13, 2017 Share The pic of Gregory in the Netwerk 24 article is just too much, I can't look at it without tearing up, really hits home, the tragedy of it all. I don't want to be scared to ride my bike but I am, scared i'm going to be mugged or run over. WTAF!?!?! varkie2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smurfy Posted February 13, 2017 Share That's why I don't ride alone, I`d rather stay home and watch tv. Never ride without my piece. We are very seldom less than 3 cyclists. Botties just getting too dangereous. Be safe out there. Skiet vrek, kan jy later verduidelik......... Flame suit on...... Just my 2c worth of chirp..

Just my 2c worth of chirp..It's in the run to CTCT that training has become a little more challenging as mates are not always available and indoor trainer can get very boring. I always try to ride with someone but not always possible. Smurfy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurfy Posted February 14, 2017 Share Friends and family of the late Gregory Basson who was killed in a hit and run incident on Bottelary Road, are planning a memorial ride on Saturday 4 March @7h00.The riders will depart from Kuilriver Ipic @7h30. Everyone will cycle down to the spot where the accident happened as a ghost bike has been placed there in remembrance of Gregory. There is ample parking at IPIC so you can come by car and cycle with the group to the spot of the accident which is about 15 km away, turn back or continue on the ride all the way to Stellenbosch.We want to ask everyone that support safer roads for cyclists to join us for a relaxed and united ride. Please obey the rules of the road and be safe out there. Wear your fluorescent yellow ' Stay Wider of the Rider' jersey if you have one and please use the lights on your bike. Only yellow line cycling and stop at traffic lights and stop streets. Only single file riding. Let's ride for safer roads and in memory of a Gregory Basson.. As per PPA Facebook.
