Bump, hoekom mail Oom nie die links van al die bike jackings nie of copy en paste die lot.

Thanx, dankie ek sal dit doen. Ek run ook nie die initiatief nie, iemand het gevra ek moet dit doen.

Hi, We only noticed this post now somehow... We personally know the person who is driving this issue in Council, Its Councillor Crezane Bosch. If you have any incidents you still wish to report please let us know and we will pass the info on to her. She serves in the Sports and Recreation Portfolio in Council, and submitted vast amount of questions to the Mayor which she never received a reply on it. However with the tragic accident of Burry she managed to set up a meeting with the new MMC for sport which seems promising. As soon as we have more info from her, we will let you guys know. You could follow our facebook page though as we will post info there first hand.

good for Crezane. I really appreciate the efforts she and Fredi Pienaar are doing for cyclists in Pretoria
