The spruit

[Poenster]

Went for a ride on the braamfontein spruit last week thursday, and there were loads of cops walking up and down the river. Looks like they were busy with a clean up of sorts.

 

Went riding there yesterday, and there was a security company doing patrols as well!

 

Looks like they are trying to make it safer there for us!!!

That's good news, Poenster. I hope they keep it up.

Did everybody decide to ride yesterday afternoon insted of the morning. Damn it was busy from 4pm onwards. It's a pity the girly mtbers don't like to get dirty because they are making so many new tracks just to avoid the muddy patches. Not good at all.

LOL! Was thinking the same thing. Maybe a lot of us were watching 30 grown men chasing an oval ball?

Those cops apprehended a couple of the hijackers that have been terrorising users of the Spruit.  I chatted to them for a bit.  Top blokes.

maybe they could have tied them to the ground and we could ride over them and let the chain blades go to work.

Thats great news!

 

How did they catch them? What info did they use? Apart from the obvious (ie actually being bike jacked) is there anything we can look out for that can help them further?

There was an article about the bike jackings in the Sandton Chronicle, maybe that triggered the interest all of a sudden? Either way it's good to know the cops are doing their bit.
