Chris_ Posted May 1, 2020 Share Do Joburgers think we can get a petition to close off the M1 on weekends between 6 and 9? I'm trying to find a nice stretch of trafficlightless road for my tri bike (comic sans barely intentional) Gen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gen Posted May 1, 2020 Share 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...Lol apparently not [emoji1787] People argue about lockdown and we shouldn't be restricted and people will use common sense..but some of the actions today is a clear indication that some people just can't..the 6-9 am bit is also not making things easier... I am sure it will get less busy over the next few days..[emoji1696] Edited May 1, 2020 by Gen Skubarra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mokgaga'a mmakubela! Posted May 1, 2020 Share 3-hour window could increase the spread of Covid-19. If this continues, we’ll be back to level 5 ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 1, 2020 Share 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! SMH. I have no words. splat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ouzo Posted May 1, 2020 Share Did not sleep well, so skipped the ride. But decided to get the entire family dressed and we took a walk around the neighbourhood. Kids and wife have not left the house in about 6 weeks. I’ve transferred my peddles and cadence sensor onto the Giant and will hit the road tomorrow morning.

Chris_ Posted May 1, 2020 Share Don't put your trainers away yet. Would it be possible to (officially) close off a parallel road or two to lessen this? Obviously a ton of people live around this stretch, are there even enough side streets (that aren't 45 degree ascent)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORNE Posted May 1, 2020 Share Don't put your trainers away yet.considering this graphic....if I went out this morning and saw that herd on the promenade...i would have taken a walk in the other direction instead haha clement and JuliBoB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
