Coronavirus lockdown and exercising outdoors


Recommended Posts

Snitches getting stitches is fine if you’re part of some underworld organisation or some such thing but for the most part it’s just dramatics.

 

As for choosing or not being able to talk to your friends about their behaviour that says a lot too.

 

I’m not a fan of politicians or big government and I surely don’t trust or like the SA government, but I’m mindful as always that our freedoms come with responsibilities. If we don’t want government in our business then society needs to be able to regulate itself, and being able to express one’s opinion of another’s behaviour and have a mature discussion without getting their knickers in a knot is essential.

 

It seems many people forget the responsibility part and others get offended at views that are different to their own.

Guys I have compiled a dossier of all transgressors . I have analyzed the routes they took and the distances being ridden . I’ll have you know I did not like the results. I have personally identified at least 115 transgressions in the last 48 hrs. I have sent saps all the screenshots from Strava plus all what’s app chats confirming these transgressions. Guys seriously we all need to start looking at each other and report anything you deem suspicious. Just the other day I spotted an elderly lady at checkers buying cheesecake . Since when is cheesecake an essential item. But don’t worry folks I immediatly called the manager and she was apprehended before she could pay her parking ticket . Even though she was 98 years old rules are rules and who are we to decide what rules can be broken or

Not .

That depends if its baked or not. Baked cheese cake is what you give people who ride with short socks.

On a lighter note...

What am I missing with the Rapha hate?

People hate and mock more expensive things.

 

It’s strange, you seldom see a guy dressed in Rapha riding a Sworks mocking a dude on a cheaper bike. Makes you think about who the chops really are, doesn’t it ;)

Envy and Jealousy bring out the worst in some people.

For other people, its drinking brandy...

 

But, I am interested to know where Maap fits in compared to Rapha and Assos.

Is it like German car manufacturer preference or like groupset hierarchy  ?

Rapha is only exclusive in SA because you can’t get it there. In the UK everybody has it. Much like Canyon. Maap is ok, if you want to be bling, rather get Black Sheep. Well that was until those guys in morningside ended up with a few boxes of kit somehow.
