Yellow line, cryptonite

[Cornelis]

I didn't follow the Medscheme race setup so I have no idea where the riders started for Sunday's final leg.

Excluding that less than kind section after Blue Berry farm to past Pniel there is a MASSIVE yellow line area. The roads weren't closed, it's Sunday and hundreds of people are heading to Franschoek.

 

But for all that is holy, the yellow line still seems like Crypronite to some roadies! The people were cruising down the backside of Helshoogte in the middle of the lefthand lane, they weren't even riding in a bunch, so no excuses for lack of space.

Come on guys, just because you paid your entry fee and have your spandex cladding on doesn't make you immune against a two ton four wheeler.

For once I have to applaud a truckload of motorist that were exceptionally patient with less than bright cyclists.
