harry1 Posted January 12, 2009 Share I'll get the popcorn......Hello Monday...... Rules are there to be broken?Rules only applies to the fun riders? What happens if you crash on your second lap? Spinnekop ... I have travelled extensively and what I found why Europe is such a successful country' date=' whilst I was in France, is that the citizens do not take "short-cuts". They are "law-abiding" citizens ... no "hanky-panky" deals, they charge you VAT and pay over to the government ... no corruption, even when they work with asbestos, they insist having their handgloves on ... Here in South Africa ... the opposite, if it suites us, lets break the rules, depending on "how i feel today" ... In Sydney, one of our friends were ask to remove their children from an area where alcohol was served, because the kids were younger than 16 ... the owner said his licence could be taken away if the authorities found the kids in the area ... [/quote'] yip it depends on how i feel exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porky Posted January 12, 2009 Share If riding with your friends, wife,girl friend / boy friend, the vibe etc is so important, ride with them on the first lap. The rule says "no second circuit" why cant you respect that.? As for not drinking the first time round theory, thats just plain ignorant, you get one chance to eat as many bar ones as you can drink as much coke etc as you can ON THE FIRST ROUND, its not held over for you for later, you get one shot and thats it.

[/quote'] So you're the jerk that keeps hogging the right lane doing 120 on the highway, 60 on all the arterial roads and 40 at the creche down the road???* *please note this is a joke - aimed at pointing out the irony of selective law abidance. Eating as many barones and drinking as much coke as you can is greedy! Eat and drink as much as you NEED! Leave the rest for th guys doing a second lap** **this is also a joke. Sort of.

Velouria Posted January 13, 2009 Share why do you guys do a second lap ? if it is just to enjoy the vibe thats awesome - then help out - but if it is to better your DC time then go away. my main aim of doing a second lap is to enjoy the vibe and help out the backmarkers. a number of my friends are doing it for their first time and I offered to ride with them Yeah - a beer run on the second lap is awesome - first stop KalkBay, then Simons Town. Helping and pushing back markers along the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idrive Posted January 13, 2009 Share I'm slow and my start time is late but I also want to do a second lap, so I'll just start with a front bunch and take it easy so I've got enough 'power' to do the second lap. I'm sure the real racers won't mind and they can go around me if I suddenly stop at a water table. I reckon I'll start at about 06:00 ..... anyone else keen, we could ride in a bunch! If someone has a beer or two on their second lap and is involved in a serious accident with a 'legal' rider then said lehal rider would be able to sue the pants of the Argus organisers ...... and don't say it won't happen!!idrive2009-01-13 11:14:15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
