  9. Enige iemand informasie van n fietsryer wat raakgery is op Zambizi pas na Cullinun net na die winkel sentrum Woensdag so tussen 16:00 en 17:00. Het net stukke van n Fiets gesien met die die polisie wat wat besig was met n verklaring langs die pad. Die voertuig was van die patologiese afdeling en as die wrakstukke van die fiets n indikasie is, glo ek nie die fietsryer het oorleef nie.
  10. Don't forget that 4x4 tannies. The road belongs to them.
  11. What next? Involved the members on Facebook like Pretoria east mtb and other Riding clubs into this idea.
  12. Posted by one one of my fellow runner friends: Fellow "Klapperkoppers", be careful out there! Sunday Werner, Marna and I ran to Klapperkop, we ran at 15h00, due to church in the morning. Jonty joined us on his bike and was going out and back to do some training Jonty cycled towards us (front) and said there were zebras ahead, which made us all focus on about 250m ahead of us, I could see a man, taking photos of the view and zebra. Suddenly there was 3 men and they looked to be having a scuffle, initially looked like they were all together, but there was random panic, we could not really tell who were the good guys or the bad. Werner was shouting which seemed to have scared them off, when we got there, they had been trying to rape the woman (odd) but she was getting dressed and there was another man with her, bleeding, iphoneless and rather upset. It looked like our arrival had saved the situation for them, I was glad that it had not turned out worse for the couple! They are a lovely couple and I was glad to have been there to help them. I think they were from out of town, as they did not know where the police station was. Be careful out there!
  13. Just recieved on facebook. It seems like yesterday afternoon Another robbery at Klapperkop -three males armed with knifes, robbed visitors of their cellphones and ran in the direction of the mtb track next to George Storrar rd. One wearing red, the other black and the third camo tops. Cyclists be ware...it happened just before 17:00. They were chased by another cyclist but they got away.
  14. Riding the route regular in the afternoons and sat Mornings. So far no problems - the road is busy so the possibility for an attack is limited.

  16. Always problems at Cornwall hill area. stay of the single roads if you are alone.
  17. Just see it on Facebook under Bicycle safety Steve Gale 11 hrs Just a note, a friend and I (both males) were bike jacked on the Melville mtb trail by 3 men this afternoon. Be aware and on the lookout if up there in a small group, they were very aggressive.
