Pantani Posted February 8, 2009 Share Suncoast Casino and the roads around the circuit... If you're not assaulted by "Heineken wielding revellers" you have to run the gauntlet and throw the dice on the "Death Mile" from the casino to Blue Lagoon...

Veloce Posted February 8, 2009 Share Bothas Hill, bike-jackers jump out from the bush at the steepest part of the hill to knock you off your bike and take what they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wessie-jnr Posted February 27, 2009 Share Suncoast Casino and the roads around the circuit... If you're not assaulted by "Heineken wielding revellers" you have to run the gauntlet and throw the dice on the "Death Mile" from the casino to Blue Lagoon...    Ya strange that ... a circuit that's suppose to be there to make things safer for us. And if there wasn't so much glass in the cycling lane one might actually be able to ride in it.   Pretty much everywhere in Durban is a danger area. Roads with shoulders (yellow lines) are pretty much non-existant. (Then again I haven't cycled here that much yet ? I've lived here for 8 years already though.)

DaLoCo Posted March 6, 2009 Share Up in Richardsbay we cycle at 4:45am to miss the traffic, but glass is very much an issue here as well. We cycle in groups. I often cycle alone as I cannot do a full distance due to time, so I have a frame bag with a .22 magnum in it. We have serious amounts of green belt, one of which is called little burundi, for obvious reasons. Best is to not cycle alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter L Posted January 2, 2011 Share Lets face it everywhere is becoming a risk .With it becoming a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time these muggers are oppurtunistc sods and are aware where people are cycling they might be savages but they are not stupid.SIMPLY PUT ONE DOES NOT GO FISHING WHERE THERE ARE NO FISH. So dont kid yourself you are at risk at all times.The amount of lonners I have seen cycling in the bush I quite frankley feel that we are lucky there are not more attacks.As for cycling with a gun you need time to draw it ,which they will not give you.On a high note Iam told a wellknown MTB Cyclist was recentley attacked in the Cedara area,with the end result that the attacker was taken out full stop GAME OVER.But it could so easilly have been different.Get a spinning bike or a trainner get fitter quicker and only ride organised events or with others.

Dsan Posted January 4, 2011 Share You lot are a paranoid bunch huh? Â Done nearly 600 km's since the 22nd, mainly up past Verulam then onto Stanger and Ballito. Went past a load of settlements and nothing but smiles, then again I smile first. M4 is fun but I spent 10 years riding in London and NYC, so used to cars being close. Will be heading up to PMB later on this month and possibly further, if anyone fancies a long trip. KingTJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caerus Posted March 27, 2012 Share Bothas Hill, bike-jackers jump out from the bush at the steepest part of the hill to knock you off your bike and take what they can. I ride up there often by myself, would never have considered it a danger area. Has there been an incident recently? Thanks for the heads up  When you say danger areas in Durban, what kind of dangerous, do you also mean the surrounding areas or just within the city?
