mecheng89 Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 I personally think it is a great idea. As mentioned earlier I just hope the do skills training as they could be very effective if they know how to handle their bikes well.Perhaps I should start my own enforcement agency. We all ride around on E-bikes , dressed head to toe in Assos gear with all the Garmin goodies, catching bad guys. If Chubb/Fox/elke Jan Rap en sy maat can do it...
Cyclewizz Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 I can confirm. I was in Hatfield on Wednesday and I saw a few on them on Titan hard tails with bags and lights. But sadly no power meters to see how much effort it requires to chase after an izinyoka. Gee you ventured very far north.Glad you back safely to our domain. Give them a chance. Most of us just started with a bike and a simple bike computer (with wires) and then we progressed to a Polar 725 and then onto Garmin (or another GPS device).In a years time they be doing crits around Hatfiled

Be patient ...
bertusras Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 has anyone in the ANC walked around Hatfield recently?? This the bikes were funded by the business community. And this The people and businesses of Hatfield were getting gatvol of petty theft, so they decided to approach the city for a solution to fight the problem from their OWN DAMN POCKET. The ANC can get stuffed with their comments. So effin' closed minded.

Long Wheel Base Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Much like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Blue_(TV_series), just not at the beach...Ahh man as a lightie I loved that program. Used to watch it religiously. Saw an episode on DSTV recently and just had to laugh. Those spinergy wheels were pretty cool.
scotty Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Well done to PTA business community and council, great initiative. I can imagine a few PTA cyclists will now be worried about their strava kom's.
Nibali Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 #TuksOfNiks Well, we've started having them in Melrose Arch, why not shut down Proes Straat for a few hours! I still feel a crit on campus will be fun...that little rise going past the Eeufees is a killer at speed. Back to the topic though. Well done on a cool initiative. Redhook crit, Hatfield style anyone?
scotty Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Reminds me of the Jhb Dial Direct initiative to repair potholes at no cost to the council. This was halted under by the ANC council as they deemed it had not properly been put out to tender and it was free advertising for Dial Direct, real reason mooted though is someone in the council saw an opportunity to make money by charging the council before they realized the public outcry would be huge, but by then it was too late and Dial Direct cancelled the whole thing.
pe3nguin Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Sorry, I went to a reputable institution so I don't know the inner workings of the University of Pretoria. But can someone explain something to me, taken from that ANC press release."a whites only residence"This is garbage right? There isn't a university residence that is whites only?

There is an Afrikaans-only, Christian residence, which would predominately feature whites by association.
Odinson Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 There is an Afrikaans-only, Christian residence, which would predominately feature whites by association. That sounds like a really amazing residence. I dearly wish I could've gone to such a residence during my time at university.
HBO Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 #TuksOfNiks Well, we've started having them in Melrose Arch, why not shut down Proes Straat for a few hours! They will get confused at the corner of Proes and Priel.
bertusras Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 That sounds like a really amazing residence. I dearly wish I could've gone to such a residence during my time at university. In bed by 9pm each evening. Sounds like heaven.
