Abandoned Giant Talon found above Rhodes Memorial??

[Stan_the_Man]

 

My friend and I found this bike abandoned on the jeep track above Rhodes Memorial last night (Tuesday 28th of October). 

We were riding to the Blockhouse when we passed this on the way up. About 45 mins later on the way down it was still there so I came and collected it with my car.

It looks like the bike had been in an accident as the rear derailleur was snapped off and the saddle was torn with gravel in it. 

I've no idea where it came from or who left it there. If anyone knows what happened please contact me. If I don't hear anything I will drop it off at the Rondebosch Police Station.

There's a distinctive sticker on it which can help with identification.

BUMP - not heard any news from anyone yet.

I will be dropping the bike off at the Rondebosch Police Station if nothing is heard over the weekend. 

Please let me know if you have any information about it.

Thanks.
