Coronavirus lockdown and exercising outdoors

['Dale]

Maybe take it a little easier so you don’t end up in hospital ?

 

He is one tough cyclist that.

That would be paper cut level injury for Vettes.

It was cold. I was totally under dressed for the cold.

Had a lekker crash.

The best 3 hours that I have spent during lock down.

Cant wait for tomorrow.

Got sent this link this morning about viral spread and social distancing and drafting zones...

(Feeling lazy this morning, so I haven't checked the validity of it.)

Another interesting conversation cropped up on the neighbourhood WhatsApp group this morning: nowhere does it explicitly say that dogs can be walked. Its implied by the graphic below, but there is a message floating around quoting Government Gazette no. 43258 blah blah and then:

'In short, the original regulation regarding movement of animals remain the same. Only for emergency purposes, example veterinarian emergencies, transporting livestock for food supply etc. is allowed. People are to exercise, not animals. Animals are not explicitly included, therefore excluded as per the original regulation. Animals remain a high risk regarding transmission of the Covid 19 virus, and various other diseases. If any person can point out the explicit inclusion of dog or animal walking into the new regulations, then we will consider it, but until such time, the original movement of animals for emergencies only apply.'

 

I call bollocks - too late for that!

Sea Point was absolutely pumping this morning. This social gathering timeslot is working out great

Won't be surprised if the close off all of the beach fronts...either that or they need to ammendment the time frame ..

 

People obviously very excited to get out..maybe you'll see less people out in a few days time.

To reference ol Ang Motshekga from last night - How dare you misread and misrepresent that picture to think you can have a dog with you. It was merely a proposal and you should have known what it meant.

Definitely, it's like the gym in January

 

Surge now and will normalize by Monday or Tuesday, but even then social distancing will be in the back mirror I think

Eina. Fortunately it was only zero degrees....is the Lynskey OK?

I have some sympathy... Sea Point high density area squashed between the mountain & sea so options in that 5km range are limited. That said there are probably more options than just the promenade...
