wildog_a Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 On Saturday some of my roadie mates invited me along for a ride - first time on the road bike post-injury and since my incident with the truck ... I guess they needed someone to ride at the back as hijacker bait!A sinister-looking black bakkie with tinted windows pulled up next to us at the intersection just before Ontdekkers crosses the concrete highway. "Do you know this is a hijack hotspot?" asked the guy inside. Suddenly feeling a bit foolish for clinging to our traditional route despite the known dangers, we admitted we did...He seemed to be advance guard on a group ride which followed the same route later.We also saw some other chaps with two-way radios like the one he was carrying next to the road. Does anyone know who organised all this? I feel I need to at least make a contribution to your club coffers or something.
