Andreas_187 Posted February 26, 2020 Share That's good news but 3 years is a disgrace. He probably withdrew his appeal because he knows he will be out in a year DJR and ChrisF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted February 26, 2020 Share That's good news but 3 years is a disgrace. He probably withdrew his appeal because he knows he will be out in a yearHe withdrew his appeal because his lawyer explained to him that he might well get sentenced more severely on appeal. And yes, he may well spend about a year inside if he is well behaved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted February 26, 2020 Share He withdrew his appeal because his lawyer explained to him that he might well get sentenced more severely on appeal. And yes, he may well spend about a year inside if he is well behaved. So what kind of a jail will he be going to ... something with the reputation such as Pollsmoor or a holiday resort of sorts?

Chingy182 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Stay wider FB page reporting a mugging on the West Coast cycle lane yesterday.Any news out there?Lack of information on this incident, as well as the one from the other day, is very concerning to me. We were out riding around there at 05h30 and could just as well have been us. Missus did mention when I told her about it this morning that she spotted a few guys sitting on the dunes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick_A Posted March 17, 2020 Share Howzit all,I’m moving to Rondebosch in the coming months and was planning on cycling into town for work as I’ll be based in the foreshore area - any suggested routes or areas to watch out for? The way I see it’s basically over the mountain, along Woodstock main rd, or along Liesbeek then onto the cycle lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
