Will this ever stop.

RIP rider and condolences to the family.

 

Just out of respect for the man and his family, maybe don't show the last image.

very sad RIP brother

 

not encouraging to see that even the drivers who are supposed to be most aware of other traffic ,obstructions and dangers on the road and in their surroundings don't give a sh#t about cyclists

I made the mistake of looking at the comments on Algoa FM FB page, majority of the comments made my blood boil to the point of rage. Loads of 'Sorry to hear but...." and the the venomous bile comes out about cyclist's owning the road, two abreast etc etc. The man lost his life going for a morning ride and the post's keep coming on and on.

I am with you here, I am losing faith in people at a rapid rate. As mentioned before, the more people I meet, the more I love my dog....

He was a well known Professor at Nelson Mandela University.

 

Most local accountants would have been taught by him at some point in time.

 

Rather sad

Agreed, the idiots come out in full force whenever something like this happens. Most make their lack of intelligence abundantly clear the moment they start typing.
