Well I certainly didn't mean to disrupt this thread, nor do I now, but I don't consider what I said to be 'racist'....
700% the normal homicide rate for white victims sounds like 'racism' to me.
If people want to visit SA, fine with me...And I'm sure you Afrikaners have your Patriotism, I'm just not sure it's wise for Europeans be there these days.
No harm meant tho
Does the ongoing 'farm murder' situation not discriminate color either?As to the racist comments that I did not see, we have been the Rainbow nation since 1994 and biking in SA does not discriminate between colour.

I am not white or black nor an Afrikaner, I am a South African. If you want to believe all the media hype then fine by me too.
each country has it's problems exagerated by the media and Hollywood. If I were to believe the bullshit about the States then who would want to go there.
As for defending my country, I will leave that to the millions of tourists that vist SA annually.
As for biking, there is no country to match mine.
By the way, do you still have "Black biker week" Do you consider that to be racist?
The offer stands to anyone, regardless of race, colour, sex, religion,creed or sexual persuasion.
Can you say the same?

I spent my therapy money an a K1200S
The therapy worked, I got a GS now
A touch of insanity crept back in the shape of an R1200R

That takes place in my former home town. It gets pretty wild, and the locals are trying to ban it.sapaul wrote: By the way, do you still have "Black biker week"?
You have inspired me to look into renting a bike the next time I'm in RSA. Have' been for about five years (that was a week in Pretoria) but I've been invited to give a presentation in Saldanha next summer (for us) winter ) for you. It would be fun to ride out to the wine country.

Ya know, it's actually kindof hypocritical if you are so much endorsing diversity yet you will not tolerate or discuss diverse opinions and worldviews.Hey, dipshit. Take your racist attitude and avatar and go play somewhere else.
Blatant cursing,namecalling and verbal abuse is OK, as long as the C%# is a white racist, eh?
I don't have anything to say about this anymore in this thread, though if you'd wish to discuss it elsewhere without the obvious hateful bias, I'd be glad to oblige ya.
And btw my avatar is not racist, what ever that is supposed to mean....Does it mean white?
