  1. Hi - further details to follow, but my mate Brett managed to evade an attempted Bike Jacking EARLIER TODAY, uphill section approaching Simtswinkel corner, that gravel parking lot, I would guess 200m - 300m before that parking lot, bugger hiding in the bushes...more detail to follow as I get it. (interesting, Brett is a friend of Andrew who got bike jacked TWICE... both avoid Ocean View Corner, and now getting (attempted) bike jacking near Smitswinkel - where will it all end?) Cheers Chris
  2. I found this Cannondale on the FB marketplace with cryptically little written about it: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1337450769777748/ in case anyone is on the lookout for this bike.
  3. Bike shops and customers can now check a bicycle's history through Bike Checker and BikeRegister unveils code of practice for second-hand bike shops BikeRegister has launched a free Bike Checker service to help cycle retailers verify they are buying bikes from a genuine source. The new Bike Checker facility can be used by both retailers and members of the public to check the origin of second-hand bikes being offered to them for sale. According to BikeRegister, more than half of all bike thefts take place from an owner’s property and bike thieves are becoming increasingly more organised, with the ease with which a stolen bike can be sold continuing to encourage the theft of bikes. Alongside the BikeChecker facility, BikeRegister has unveiled a new Code of Practice for the Purchase and Sale of Second-hand bikes. The code of practice has been developed in conjunction with the Metropolitan Police Service’s Cycle Task Force and other police partners who are looking at ways to expand the successful Project Cycle Ops launched a year ago by Chief Superintendent Sultan Taylor, which delivered a reduction of cycle crime in London of over 10 per cent in its first year.

  4. Hi Guys My Swift R838 road bike was stolen from my room yesterday. It is quite a rare and distinct bike. It has a brilliant red, white and black paint job, integrated seatpost, SRAM red and easton wheels. I realise the chances of getting her back are pretty slim but please keep an eye out. Below is a picture of the bike taken sometime. The wheels are now easton EA90's and the bar tape is black not white. Everything else remains unchanged. Thanks
  5. Stolen Bikes Bikes that were stolen from our garage last night. Please keep a lookout for these: -Wheeler 2800zx classic rare mtb -Chrome downhill bike Pacific krit/muddyfox rock n roller -White Cat Leopard dual suspension trail bike -Raleigh burner BMX -Avalanche girls 16" wheel turquoise bmx -Avalanche boys 12" wheel blue mini bmx - even a green Toy Story kid's scooter The perpetrators stole nothing else but bikes! All the mountain bikes are unique looking and rare so they can be easily spotted.
  6. This morning (28th March 2014) in Rondeboch (Belmont Office Business park) I locked up my Blue dual suspension Miranda - at about 7am. Well, it is a borrowed MTB. And it was stolen. The irony is that I cycle in to save money and I borrowed the MTB because I can't afford one. And there goes my plans for the first Ascent Mast challenge. Hopping that it was not too expensive and that insurance can come into play. I was a heavy and old Miranda bought second hand. Blue with white writing and trimming. Headlight, usb rear red light Saddle bag and front bag both black. hmmmph
