Slowbee Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 This is hectic !! Thats less than one week after Williams got hit !! And this one on CWC is the same style as at Helderberg?
Mak-daddy Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Whats happening to the database thing.My brother garage was broken into a month ago and 2x 2008 giant team advance stolen.Thats R60k gone and it wasnt insured.We some how need to do something to stop these guys.
controlc Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Does the complex not have security guards? Forget the security guards, what about the burglar bars? Not that I approve the theft, but you don't protect expensive bikes with a glass door in SA. Hope you find the bikes though.
Guest Big H Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 A lot of us are coming to Cape Town in less than a month for the fun ride. Do you guys think it is still safe to come as it sounds worse than Gauteng down there nowadays.Even crime now here in Angolsh. They stole our plastic garden table and chairs from the veranda last night. I am now getting a armed guard.
Mak-daddy Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Cycling is still safer down here in the cape.However i think thier is a shift now from targeting cyclist to targeting bike shops rather.Basic economy of scale.

Guest Agteros Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 This crime thingy seems to be a world-wide phenomena, there are even reports of bicycles stolen in Europe!!! What is this world coming to?? But, I'm sure an armed guard in Angolsh is way more effective, and cheaper, than the normal ADT / Chubb 'armed' response available locally! PS: Never been sure whether the local 'armed' response units refer to the staff members having arms, or that they carry fire-arms, and are willing and ABLE to use them...
TheLegend Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 This crime thingy seems to be a world-wide phenomena' date=' there are even reports of bicycles stolen in Europe!!! What is this world coming to?? [/quote'] bike's have always been stolen in europe, it's not a fantsatic island without crime, poverty, unemployment etc. - only the boldness and simpleness (running into a shop with a vehicle) is not exactly european style. I presume that when you say that they are 'even' being bikes stolen in europe you refer to those nice jobs where they steal all bikes of a team - that's always been there, especially at big events like world cups, europen and world champs...

Guest colonel Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Stand on guard yourself if you not happy?
Guest Big H Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Stand on guard yourself if you not happy? Thanx for the suggestion, why, is that what you and the rest in slaapstad do?Big H2009-02-08 09:23:04
