afloris Posted November 11, 2021 Share Hi, my bike was stolen on Sat 06 Nov around 10:30 am. The thieve snatched my bike and rode off. Apparently second bike stolen at the coffee shop in 2 weeks. The bike is a Large white Giant Defy roadbike. I can be contacted on 0824945448 if you have any information.

FootballingCyclist Posted November 11, 2021 Share Geez sorry to hear man, We were also there on Saturday morning but around 7am side. Is there nobody who could have chased after him as there aren't many roads which 1 could exit that area from. Good Luck and hope you are reunited with your bike.

afloris Posted November 11, 2021 Share thanks appreciated..so I did try to run after this guy, and waved down a guy in a bakkie to assist, but he disappeared. Please look out for this guy. .He is tall and thinblack/coloured gentelman ..wears a hoodie and black cap..he is apparently a known thieve of bikes in that area and is hitting cyclist on that beachfront. If you see him just alert SAPS Melbosstrand. A detective Jacobs is on the case on 072 560 2512 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the most disappointing part. Hope you find your bike. Hope we, one day, get actual policing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So sorry man, hope you come right sooner than later. Fyi as a general tip. I have a rubber O ring on my handlebars, like on the Garmin mounts. If I stop anywhere for coffee I strap it to the brake lever and also clip my helmet strap round one the wheels. Mitigates any opportunist **** taking a chance. Will literally animal balloon a coffee table up the nought of the person caught! MORNE , afloris, mazambaan and 3 others 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to make it that little bit harder for the thief to get momentum, especially as he won’t be clipped in. Danger Dassie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
