markStockton Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Did anyone else see the dumb@ss riding north in the yellow lane or the N3 south this morning? I saw him at about 6h50 near the new Pick n Pay DC in Marlboro. I think a cop had spotted him and was reversing up the highway to apprehend the tjop.

Sammajoor Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 and then is heaven forbid something goes wrong, he blames the authorities. Stupid SH*T
Zaskar Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 I saw a guy dressed in a security guard uniform riding his MTB on the right hand side (fast lane!!) yellow lane of the N3 north, on sunday afternoon! It was around 14h30 and was betwen the Linskfield and the Modderfontein offramps!
markStockton Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 Geez, how stupid are these people. This guy this morning was wearing orange and white cycle kit.
Bos Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 I almost got "trapped " by a guy comming up the wrong side of kloofnek just below Raffikis, I never look left and right (cause its a one way) and as I walk there almost everyday (the beer is at raffikis) I just walked without looking for cars going the wrong way. so this oke in a gray polo almost runs me down, jumps on the hooter and shouts at me... next thing fate served him a bit of payback by the lights going green and lots of cars comming his way... was to funny, I love when that happens.

But down here it is still the safest place to cycle.

jmaccelari Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 could mr tjop be your partner?Nope - but I know of another Bloemfonteiner it might be. Maybe with them being kicked off the N1, they're moving up here.. On topic: has anyone noted the percentage of "locals" who ride contra-traffic, i.e. on the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic in Jhb? Seems the idea is you can see the car before it hits you... I commute on my bike now and again, and it's scary having to pull out to let these idiots pass.
