thiart Posted February 4, 2015 Share On Saturdays there are loads of people cycling and running on the trails, so I have not seen anything untoward recently. Mid week rides I still ride only in groups of min 3 people... Craig Slow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FHB Posted March 9, 2015 Share Evening Gents. What is the situation in Centurion, I am cycling at 4AM in the mornings in the Clubview/ ruimte rd area up to the R55, then to Zwartkops raceway and then back home. Am I daft for doing this, and if so, what other alternative routes could you suggest?ThanksH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlakvark T Posted March 10, 2015 Share Riding the route regular in the afternoons and sat Mornings. So far no problems - the road is busy so the possibility for an attack is limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is a case these days of one thinking: "when is it my turn to get hijacked?" Skylark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxUmis Posted April 8, 2015 Share Hi guys, I thought I'd share another red flag for Klapperkop.I over heard a couple of guys talking about a serious attack at Klapperkop this past weekend. The incident happened around 3pm on Sunday(if I heard right). Be safe out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cav' Posted April 9, 2015 Share Pisses me off, Klapperkop is one of the best places to practice your climbing - And now I cant ride it before work because I'm afraid I might lose a mtb or a phone. Anyone have a link to a site for buying a small pepperspray that I can Velcro to my top tube? Edited April 9, 2015 by Cav' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
