"This is really terrible news. I really love seeing older people getting around on bikes. I find it inspiring.  RIP mate. My condolences to his family. "

"I use Cedarleigh Rd to avoid this section, then Marshall Rd, Ljong, Akuna then through Akuna oval to the western freeway bikepath. Opposite way going home. Your idea would be flatter. "

"CBDBUG are excellent. "

"Anyone else noticed the "repair" to the sink hole on the side of the bike path at the Toowong roundabout (cnr Milton Rd and Miskin St) ?   I really hope that is temporary although the absence of barriers or other warning markings…"

"Awesome result there !!!   Well done Shaun and well done BCC for correcting this so promptly."

"I'd be offering to get confirmation of legal responsibility from the police, if she has any doubts. Claiming a SMIDSYs don't absolve your legal liabilities."

"agreed - by putting that in, it would also have removed the lingering issues at both ends where cyclists end up weaving through cars, riding the wrong way up streets etc, to cross the road."

"I actually just realised it was the skinny ramps on the Milton Rd / Jephson St corner I meant."

"Also, how does the Mango go with the new "improved" skinny ramps in that mess near the corner of Sylvan Rd and Milton Rds? If find it tight on a DF bike sometimes."

"Paul, The Makerston St ramp is 1 block NW of the Hershel St ramp.  I know its quite steep and narrow but would it be accessible by Mango?  I've never actually used it but used to use the Hershel St one all the time which goes past…"

"Lucky I didn't watch it.  That bio makes me infuriated."

"I think it should be "safe" instead of "nice". So maybe play safe, stay safe, be safe, think safety etc. I also like avoiding "ride" as all modes (bike, run, walk, skate etc) can contribute to hazardous situations there…"

"Paul, That sounds nearly as bad as that idiot couple who pulled you over on the Western Freeway bikepath on Thursday afternoon :) At least they appreciated your company. Ben"

"Ok so I think you need to start a new thread on this one. We want details !!!! What options etc !!! Man I'm so jealous."
