Cape Town danger areas

[Evan Andreou]

Lets split geographically

[HomerSimpson]

Stellenbosch:

Road

R304 at Kayamandi.  Watch for people loitering along the road.

R44 at Cloetesville; particularly on weekends, watch for groups parked out under the trees.

MTB

Papegaaiberg.

I think I must move to CT! If this is the only danger area and it is not Hijack related, then I may be tempted to relocate... and CT has brilliant MTB routes as well!! Work is just a bit of an issue...

[TheDoc]

Seems like Rhodes Memorial is also a Danger Area of late!

[Overlord]

Does it count when you are chased by a Zebra?

[fatcyclist]

Woodstock area of Main Road...lost some stuff from my pockets there once..

I got mugged by three guys in the Koeberg Reserve a few weeks ago.

Seriously? Did you report it? I was under the impression that place was extremely safe.

The Head of Security at Koeberg is my neighbour. If something like this happens PM me the details so that I can bring it to his attention.

Seriously???

 

This is one of the only places that I go ride alone.  Now I'm properly freaked out!

[Aedon]

Thanks for all the concern.

I was on my own and all they took was the R50.00 I had,  probably because I forgotten my phone at home.

Was on the way down to the dam area when three guys walked in front of me. One of them had a knife so I just gave him the money.

Been mugged once before and got stabbed three times so I didnt want to relive that experience.

Thats crap bud. Will have a talk to him tonight.

[Woofie]

Hey, this is quite a big worry for me as well!

 

I often go riding there.

 

The only thing that used to worry me was the Zebras that made me have to back track twice.

 

Seems like I will have to arrange group rides there now.

 

I am not really going to feel safe with two people will have to get three now.

 

Where exactly on the course did the mugging take place?

 

I have even been riding there in the dark a few times with a light, (winter rides) thats kinda out the window now.

 

oh well, now the big question

 

Dodge taxis with my road bike

 

or

 

potentially get attacked while mtbing

 

mmmmmm...........
