EdoardoBianchi Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Glad you're ok, Gerrit. Alert the Pawn shops in the area (are there any?) and monitor Junkmail over the next couple of weeks... Bastids
Chrispy Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Gerrit best of luck. Hope you recover soon and get back on a bike.

Pickled Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 May the fleas from a Thousand Afagan Camels infest the crotch of those F***ers and may their arms grow to short to scrath. Good to hear that you are physically OKish.
Thug Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Sorry to hear about your misfortune Gerrit but glad you came out of this in one piece. You hadn't even had your Spaz for a year but at least you can now get a decent bike
NotSoBigBen Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Gangsta - it's you and me behind the shed after work today for those kind of 'blasphemous' statements
widget Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Oi,Oi - sad to hear such news. As dumb as it sounds, go report it to your local police station, they will probably do it again and again and hopefully sooner or later get caught, then the more cases opened against them the better the chance of a conviction and getting them off the street. Dont just leave it bud, do the right thing, (even if you think its pointless) and open a case.
Robotech Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Sorry to hear dude...don't worry, they'll get whats coming to them...
miss V Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 makes me scared, i cycle past there sometimes and during the week i'm usually on my own. good luck dude, glad ur okay
Sabre484 Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Just one more thing that is getting worse in SA. Glad you still ok dude.. Noticed the other day on Beyers Naude a Chap cycling on a road bike, definately not his, he was not a cyclist, but what struck me was that there was still a championchip on the front wheel. Was a cannondale...Time we take these okes out...
gerritvn Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 Bike recovered! How? Yesterday I offered a finder's fee in the area where it happened to anybody finding the bike and this morning I received a phone call from a guy who had "found" it. The R 1000 finder's fee was probably a lot more than the value on the black market. Everything seems untouched, even the credit card in the saddle bag (already canceled yesterday) was still there. Sad that one has to buy back your own property on the black market, but I am very happy. Thanks for all the words of sympathy and think twice before riding alone.
