News Flash on cycle safety: Clients were attacked on Helshoogte this evening. New road and on the descent. 4 muggers, 1 with a heavy stick and 3 to do the mugging once rider down. Fortunately no casualties and the 2 riders got away with all possessions. Apparently the idea was to hit rider off the bike and then have the 3 other muggers do the picking. This latest incident now makes ALL roads out of and into Stellenbosch extremely high risk. Post of W.Keith From twitter: @MattDaneel: Myself & @hendrikvh got attcked on Helshoogte pass outside Stellenbosch. +-6:20pm, 4 guys with sticks hit us but got away! @bicyclesafetysa
Anyone have more information on this, time, place, pictures of bikes, riders, etc? Edit: changed the heading to mugging after receiving more information
