Karl Harder might attend heather's eventlunchtime coffee meet-up for my birthday at Aroma Cafe, near State Library
June 6, 2012 from 12pm to 2pm
The coffee and cakes are good, and the food interesting and healthy. My birthday and what better to celebrate than drinking coffee with cyclists! The invite extends to my 4 advocacy groups (Adelaide BUG, Prospect BUG, Look For Cyclists, Vote For Cyclists), my AC 'friends' and AC members. I will be there from noon to 2.00pm, so attend any time between to fit in with your lunch break. Please let me know if you are attending and what time period, so I know how many tables to book. Say if 20 people…See More
Slammin replied to Karl Harder's discussion Clipsal - Fullarton Road Traffic"Normally by the Thursday or Friday drivers have remembered what its like at "Clipsal time" and start going earlier, later, dare I say ride their bike, so it does get easier along Fullarton road by then. Infact driving my car on the friday…"
Trevor Hill replied to Karl Harder's discussion Clipsal - Fullarton Road Traffic"Not Fullarton but Marion Rd. One of the guys I work with complained to me it took 20 minutes and 5 sets of lights to cross Sturt Rd heading north this morning.
It was great on the bike, flying pass all the stationary and slow moving cars!"
Rob (Chewbacca) replied to Karl Harder's discussion Clipsal - Fullarton Road Traffic"Yes have travelled Fullarton Rd on a bike in peak hour....usually not too bad"
"I had a similar experince as I had to drive today too (to return a sewing machine, can't commute with that on your back unfortunately). Took me an hour to get to work, it's 8km. Mind you I did leave at 8am so copped the worst of it. I was…"
Karl Harder posted a discussionClipsal - Fullarton Road Traffic
I'm Glad that i usually ride the bike to work as i have had to take the car today and got stuck in traffic on fullarton rd. It took me 21min to drive 350m and a total of 46min to get to work. I didn't see any police directing traffic this year which is unfortunate. It usually takes me about 26min to get to work on the bike. I will be riding the bike for the rest of the week because the traffic is so busy. Does anyone travel on Fullarton rd during peak hour?See More
heather replied to Karl Harder's discussion bike lanes temporarily unenforceable"Here is another unenforceable bicycle lane.
Prospect Road with bicycle lanes. Cycling hazard of signs (anomaly of the Prospect Road upgrade). Outside Cibo, 124c Prospect Road. One sign states “bicycle lane 4.30pm to 6pm”. However, a…"
heather replied to Karl Harder's discussion bike lanes temporarily unenforceable"Mike, I have often told AC members to phone the police or local council. Sometimes action is taken against the drivers. If a cyclist complains on AC without contacting the authorities, then no chance of action against the drivers."
Mike W replied to Karl Harder's discussion bike lanes temporarily unenforceable"Rode west on Sturt Rd between Morphett Rd and Brighton Rd last Wednesday, two cars parked in bike lane during the active bike lane times. Some rocket scientist in a ute type 4wd with the roll bars etc (you know, all the stuff you need in the city !)…"

Karl Harder replied to David Bowler's discussion School Drop off in bike lane"David,
I sent an email to the school earlier this year in regards to this matter with no reply. I also contacted the council too. It is amazing that it still happens as frequently now as it was in the beginning of the year. It is also crazy…"
Nigel "Griffo" Griffiths replied to Karl Harder's discussion Park your car in the bike lane and it might get crushed by a tank!"An armoured personnel carrier with tracks does a far better job!!! Actually, the vehicle pictured is an Armoured Recovery Vehicle, same body as a M113A1 APC"
