Think Bike

Think bike....I say FUCK Bike...

So, in South Africa, there's an organisation, called Think Bike, that raises awareness about Motorcycles and Bicycles that drive on our roads. I can respect the idea behind the initiative, for I have first hand experience of how dangerous it can be to drive on a 2 wheeled machine, with a engine between the legs. Here is the problem I have though...

I drive on home on the N1 every day after work, this is the biggest motorway in the country, and get's bumper to bumper traffic every morning and afternoon. The piece of the motorway that I drive on, has 3 lanes going in the direction that I travel in. The motorcycles that take this same motorway, does not find it important to stay in these lanes, instead they choose to drive on the white lanes that separate the 3 lanes. So, when I (or any other motorist for that matter) need to change lanes, they expect us to see them coming through at the speed of sound, as well as focus on all the other vehicles on the road next to, in front and behind me.

It has happened twice recently that I have almost knocked someone off a bike while changing lanes, on both occasions the person on the bike decided to slow down, drive next to me and rev their engines, as if to say "watch where you're driving". On both occasions, I promptly put my hand out the window, and greeted them with a middle finger and shouted something like "fuck off you cunt" just before they speed away.

To me it seems highly unfair that we, as motorists, are expected to look out for the bikers, when they obviously have no regard for personal safety, by racing through traffic between the cars, instead of just staying in the lanes like the law tells you to do.

I can tell you this much, if I had hit one of these bikers off their bikes, I would not even feel remotely sorry, plainly because I believe that if you want to be stupid then you have to face the shit that comes your way.

So, to all the bikers out there that drive like cunts, I say this: "drive like normal, sane people, or be prepared to be FUCKED, cunts"

Peace

THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY!!

So, it's weekend time, and I got a feeling that this weekend will be a top one.

First up is Dansville tonight. Now, for those of you that do not know, Dansville is a monthly Drum n Bass / Dubstep party that happens in Cape Town. It features some of the best DJ's that our beautiful city has to offer. It's a drunk, sweaty, mess of people that all get together, and loose their minds to the beats and bass. If you have not been, I suggest you make a plan to go, it will change your life!

For a taste of what to expect from Dansville, watch this video....

Saturday I gotta clean house in the morning, this is something I am not looking forward to, since I will have a hangover of note, and after that I have to attend a farewell party at Stones, for a girl that I have recently met, that is going to London. She will be missed.

Sunday is a HUGE day!! First I have a Hockey match against Central Hockey Club. I am looking forward to this, for one reason only....the Samoosas they sell at their clubhouse is AMAZING! They are made by a real Indian lady, and made with Indian love. I rate that those Samoosas were made in heaven, and sent down to earth, to give our taste-buds orgasms. After the game, I will swiftly move on to the closest pub, for the single most important football match of the season....Manchester United vs Chelsea FC

If Chelsea can manage to win the game, chances are we will end up ending off the season as Premier League Champions. This is no easy game though, as we have to travel to Manchester for the game and play it in their back yard (The Theater of "wet" dreams) This Football match has the power to make or break my weekend, that is how big it is! That is how addicted I am to the Beautiful Game!

So, hope you all have a great weekend, have fun, go wild, but always be safe!
Peace

Always start at the beginning....

Alright, so I have decided to start a blog. I got my design ready, added some gadgets, "about me" text, background image, etc etc... so, what's next?

Now I have to start blogging, only problem is I am not quite sure what I want to blog about yet. I knew I wanted to start one, because let's face it, as a modern "new millennium" man, these days shit like this is expected, you know, to keep up with "the times"....what ever time that may be.

I've thought about the type of topics I should blog about. I could write about matters of the heart (although I don't know how comfortable I am with sharing my heart with the world) Tell you about "that girl" in my life, and how I made her mine, or managed to let her slip through my fingers.

I could blog about general life, you know, how my day was, what my views are on the upcoming elections, tell you about my friends, their personalities, and the things we do over weekends. Write about my likes and dislikes, how I despise Manchester United and Americans.

Or I can be like one of the many sad people in life that just make stories up about fictional characters that do funny stuff, because deep down inside, subconsciously they have a desire to become these fictional characters.Don't ask me why, it might be due to the fact that they have convinced themselves that whatever they do in life is not worth doing.

And then lastly I could write about something that is very close to my heart, something that has the power to unite nations, but break friendships apart. It has the power to make grown men jump up with joy, and to make them cry like little girls. It can provide a gateway to everlasting relationships, and has the power to destroy them forever....I can blog about football...

At the end of the day, I think the healthy option would be to write about all these topics. Combine them in such a way, that when they are put together they form the perfect blend of Ryan Wallace...nothing more, nothing less. Nothing that will change the world or create a revolution, just me, honest, straight forward and into your face. Ryan Wallace put into words, black on white, ink on paper (electronic ink and paper, of course.)

So this is it for now, I shall now spend the rest of my day working, to live and give my next blog post some thought.

Peace
