      These road changes crippled the road network. I hope you’re happy.

      Hi Angry. Happy? Yep I am happy. I am happy because it was great to see so many people of all shapes and sizes and levels of fitness out and about participating in physical exercise; taking in our beautiful city, enjoying the sunshine and enjoying a shared experience. As to “crippling” the road network? Hardly. From what I saw there was limited inconvenience. Sure there where some uptight drivers. Pretty sad really … maybe they should have got out of their cars and chilled out and enjoyed a ride. Sure beats stressing out. Maybe something for you to try?

      LOL!! If these minor closures “crippled the road network”, I think we have more problems than a charitable bike ride to worry about.

      Angry – you r an asshat. You can put up with an inconvenience for a few days per year. I have to put up with being inconvenienced by inconsiderate souls like yourself every almost every day.
