Over the years, I have played a key role in the lobby to establish bike trails in Port Elizabeth. My two biggest success stories have been the Baakens river mtb trail and Coastal Cycle Path. The latter project was first motivated in the mid 1990's and I have been beating this drum ever since. First through the organized mountain biking community and later providing input to engineering companies who were able to raise the government funds to have the paths built. I am in the fortunate position to be one of the biggest beneficiaries as I now commute to work along this path. When we first formulated these proposals, I had no idea that I would one day be commuting along this route. Just shows - good deeds always generate good returns!
