AndreZA Posted June 20, 2011 Share You should have a "NO". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoman Posted June 20, 2011 Share Why, what will be the relevance of stating "NO"?To be able to gauge the % of cyclists who have been hijacked. We should all answer, regardless of having been hijacked or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted June 20, 2011 Share To be able to gauge the % of cyclists who have been hijacked. We should all answer, regardless of having been hijacked or not. Correct. My voting "other" it means I have been hi-jacked but just not in the area you have mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubba Posted June 20, 2011 Share Why, what will be the relevance of stating "NO"? I think people selecting “other” need to define where or what happened, so that it can be included in the poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 20, 2011 Share To be able to gauge the % of cyclists who have been hijacked.

amasendeinja Posted June 20, 2011 Share We are also missing the North West province. People actually live in the North West Province!? ... just kidding. +1 on the "No" suggestion - might make for a scary statistic once the numbers start rolling in!

Chubba Posted June 20, 2011 Share Ok, made the changesWould also be interesting to see how many "Attempted" bike jackings there have been, as well as the methods used to avoid them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 20, 2011 Share don't know of anyone personally who has been a victim. I have had 3 bikes stolen, but one of those was in the UK and the other 2 were at my current home. I suspect that my previous garden boy had something to do with that.

Caerus Posted June 20, 2011 Share How would you get a hold of victims that are not on the HUB? Second suggestion, What about something done on national radio perhaps to get the awarness out there Edited June 20, 2011 by Caerus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeTurbo Posted June 20, 2011 Share Well, so far, looking at the poll, it looks like there isn't really a problem with bike jackings. Everyone relax, go back to riding your favourite trails around Rhodes Mem or wherever. You don't have to consider emmigration. It's all been blown out of proportion.

Giant Posted June 20, 2011 Share During the first Duzi Umfula bike race, my partner and I were going up guite a steep hill neer mission rapid and as we passed three guys walking down the hill, one grabbed my elbow and pulled me to the ground. a bit of a struggle ensued over my bike, fortunately I won, thanks to my spyderco. I had used it to cut the cable tyes short when putting the number board on, and put it in my pocket, first and only time I carried it on a ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
