I wish me or any of our guests could have attended, hopefully I can hear about the next event. I like the fact that it showcase the different side of these neighborhoods. It’s not all doom and gloom, am actually smiling now thinking about all those kids with their smiling faces doing their thing! As a parent myself it is so good to see.

Thank you for this. Keep it up!

I think many will graduate to that ???? There are similar versions in other places (check the India video!) but SA definitely has its own ‘spin’ (haha).

Yep, these guys are innovators. The video from India is also amazing! They’ve got crazy lights on their bikes and the bikes are soooooo long.

I wonder if this is uniquely South Africa. I just hope they don’t “graduate” to doing this in cars. It has become a HUGE problem in Chicago recently (“drifting” and drag racing). https://cwbchicago.com/2022/08/donut-spinning-drivers-create-chaos-again-damaging-6-cpd-squad-cars-in-sideshows-across-the-city.html

The spinning did remind me of drifting with cars, so interesting to see how it evolved to the young, creative set.
