Chapmans Peak Drive

[R3SL]

Being a Noordhoek Valley resident I ride Chapmans often , always been quiet and safe, very few cars, great riding etc. Until recently things have been getting a little rough on Chapmans Peak Drive , just last week I was nearly hit HEAD ON by some cow in a blue Toyota Landcruiser on the wrong side of the #@%$ing road, come on ,what the hell is going on. This is the second near miss on Chappies in 2 weeks.

 

Fellow cyclists beware there are a lot more tossers on the road of late.

I was riding up Chappies from Noordhoek side on Saturday morning and was almost hit by some kids screaming down the mountain on bikes on the wrong side of the road under the overhang. Stupidity cuts both ways on the road...

 

To the lovely lass who tried to overtake the cars and the bus on the way back down... chill...

Just to clear something up. Did they miss each other or did they hit each other? A "near miss" is when they did hit each other in other words they almost missed each other but failed. A "near hit" means they almost drove into each other. They say the same thing when two planes almost collide. They almost collided so it's a near hit.

Point taken, lets go with NEAR HIT then. If I see the car again it will not be a NEAR though, lets go with SNOTKLAP rather.
