hayleyearth Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 The first photo makes me think of the tunnel at Victory Park on the spruit in JHB. I looked and thought, oh yea, she's put an old pic up, but then it was clean so I had to look again . I will be lying if I say I don't miss the Spruit at times, I think about it at least once a week. I think how many miles I rode there and by luck or blessing alone nothing ever happened to me - even more scary when I think how and where I always rode alone there (even after sunset) - flip!If that place can become/stay safe it is a gem for sure! I for sure have it to thank for keeping my sanity through my years in JHB! Miss all the people I got to have quick 1min chats too alone my rides there - sheesh plenty of which now live outside SA...You, Patches, Pieter etc....I still have to meet people here on my 'general' routes.

The spruit was good fun. I first need to start commuting et cetera, and then I'll start seeing regular faces. I see the regulars on my morning bus to work and walks to the office.

The Bull Shark Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 Sunset singlespeed ride on Helderberg. Smashed out a ride in the lovely winter weather before the mother of all storms hit us. I hate that hill. Can never ride the very last bit.
