awesme Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Now to see if SAPS with this evidence can actually catch and prosecute these guys. G
Stretch Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 I wonder if Nick would have paid out under those circumstances?! we should tweet hollard and ask them nathrix 1
ChunkyMonkey Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Yepp...Definitely something wrong with his eyes... ... ... Hijacker.pdf nathrix, gummibear, Jigghead and 1 other 4
Swart Kat Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 And what would the outcome of this case be? 5 days cleaning streets and a R100 fine...... DIPSLICK 1
Blackbeard Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) we should tweet hollard and ask them  They would not like to comment on a specific incident out of respect for their client. Edit: ...and would not like to make a general comment as one has to look at the specific circumstances of each specific incident.

nathrix Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Hahaha that's funny  "The thing this armed robber didn’t take into account, is that every South African cyclist has a GoPro camera permanently mounted on their pip from birth. Read more: http://www.2oceansvibe.com/2014/06/04/local-mountain-bike-gunpoint-robbery-caught-on-gopro-video/#ixzz33fLCW3la"
Kranky Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Mmmm ... Glad he's ok, those tikkoppe obviously had no clue what'swhat. Rider had a very good chance to ride away right at the start.Had a very, very clear shot for a left hook as the tikkop grabbed his handlebar with his gun hand, the TK in white was far enough away to not pose an immediate threat ... but I see he was armed as well. I think the rider did just the right thing. It's only a bike. Edited June 4, 2014 by Nick. CleatsnCleavage and Jigghead 2
KENDA Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Great video footage..... Shows you how quickly things can happen. The element of surprise always wins.... Even if the rider was armed, he didn't stand a chance.
MaXiMuM Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Sjoe, well done for the calmness of the whole incident!! Must say that was scary! I must say that these dash cams and now helmet cams are starting to interest me. Spoke101 1
Capricorn Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 i hope they catch all FOUR of them. at 0:57, there's clearly some one in a hoodie sporting a very long stick parked off along the trail the gunman sent the rider along. He is either a perp, or the perfect witness.
backtrail Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Scum! I see now why some of my cycling buddies carry firearms and are trained to use them.
@ndy Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 I live 5 km's from that trail and I never go to that part alone. I have heard first hand of at two bike jackings there one happened just before I arrived on the scene and i'm pretty certain there has been more than that. Lately I have heard about wires being strung across the trails also. In my opinion there isn't enough being done to warn people how dangerous this spot is. The staff at the lodge just let everyone through who is on their own even though the rules state not to do so.
'Dale Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 All three assailants were caught following this Brilliant footageBrilliant outcome Glad the rider is okayMaterials things are nothing, can be replaced in a heartbeat (pun intended) Rata Del Spruit 1
