VT2jp Posted January 7, 2013 Share Pls give exact area of mugging - google earth etc. I think it a good idea to build a database of where these moegoes hide and attack their victims..

Sanparks need to be alerted and the need to send the horse patrols back Theres been a massive increase in car break ins on mountain this season. There's a bunch of guys even operating from a car and they hit several cars all at once.

Sash Posted January 7, 2013 Share OK one place to stop cycling, between the road and being knocked off and the mountain and muggings. I think the Silvermine / Tokai side seem to be the safest bet for bikers - and there seems to be much more safety awareness and rangers. There was a group of people making progress on the Table Mountain side (hikers I think), it is such a shame that the "Natural Wonder" can not be enjoyed because of criminal elements but such as life. To be honest unruly dog owners have been a big deterrent to cycling that way anyway - much prefer the friendly baboons.

Caerus Posted January 7, 2013 Share I was discussing this very topic today with my wife when we were sitting on top Lions Head(my first time), hectic, sorry to hear about this. Will definitely need a guide/ buddy when I go. @Meezo, you seem to be the man in the know, fancy taking a CT newbie for a ride around the mountain sometime?

Anytime, I'm on table mountain almost everyday of week except Friday. Give me a shout. With regards where is safe to cycle.... that's hogwash, we take back the mountain because it belongs to us, being the rightful users of it. Not to mug/rape/steal/kill. These okes must just as try my morning commutes i often ride off chasing shadows, to find my bro and 2 sometimes 3 colleagues trailing will be very interesting to see what happens when these okes are outnumbered out muscled.
