Captain Slow Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 see! people will moan at you for not trying and then they will moan at you for trying!!
Guest coenie Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 I am sorry, but creating a blogspot with a list of names are not going to achieve anything.....
Guest Big H Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Contents copied from the blog..... Please add your name on this blog to create a list of cyclists who are serious to improve the negative image cyclists in South Africa have.I intend to create a code of ethics for responsible cyclists who ehave well. The list below is a start. Please add suggestions to broaden the scope. I will keep up the names posted to create a comprehensive list that can be used as an example of comitted cyclists.Code of Ethics * improve the negative image cyclists have in South Africa* act curteous and friendly to fellow road users* do not block the road by riding in bunches* if you do block the road in safe areas give way when you hold up other road users* stop at robots and 4-way stops* adhere to traffic rules and signsCyclists who want to add their name to the list (pseudonyms as used on www.thehubsa.co.za acceptable) please do. Inclusion on this list will be a commitment to become a "cyclist behaving well" and will be based on the integrity of the person.Big H2009-10-22 07:58:36

Guest Big H Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 One question about the stopping at red robots. What about the ones that only change when a car is there? I have a few near where I live and my motorbike doest trigger them? Do i wait or skip? They are set off by a magnetic loop in the roadway. You can imporve your chances by wearing a suit of armour...... like King Arthur did or by attaching two pieces of corrugated iron to your bike.
leet22 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Nice answer thx. Asked a legitimate question. I know how they work. So it seems I will just have to ride through them on red and anger you.
