R59 Cycling

[KlapperKnop]

I know this topic was discussed previously on the hub, but I have to raise it again! Travelling this morning on the R59 and saw a number of cyclists cycling on the R59 in particular the section between Swartkoppies and Engen garage. Whilst travelling a number of metor cop cars (cars ranging from GTI's, STI's, Caddy VW panel vans etc.) came past me at very high speeds and at times went onto the yellow shoulder to past trucks as other cars were passing these trucks in the fast lane; my fear was what if these metro cops hit a cyclist in the yellow lane at speeds around 200km/h?

 

Cyclists, don't be a statistic by cycling on these highways!
