GIRR Posted June 22, 2009 Share Hey guys Just wanted to let everyone know about an incident in muldersdrift on Sunday. I was riding alone and a taxi came along side me and the driver said to me "give me your bicycle", I just shook my head and he continued driving next to me for a few kilometers repeating "give me your bicycle". He then drove a hundred meters in front of me and stopped. The driver then got out and tried to stop me as i went past, I dodged him and carried on my way. He didn't try to follow me after that. I don't really know what to make of this but recommend people to be careful out there, stupidly I forgot to take down his numberplate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flex Posted June 22, 2009 Share Hectic - were you riding on your own? ? he did say "i was riding alone"? Oops, missed that. I guess this confirms that its not safe, ever and anywhere, to ride on your own these days. What a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Dassie Posted June 22, 2009 Share Where was this? On the dirt road past the quarrys that ends near the Police Station? Must say, it's the first time I've heard of an incident like this there. Good thing nothing happened and you kept your cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was from the second circle towards beyers naude like you do on D2D. I often ride there alone during the week aswell and have never had a problem or incident, so was a bit surprised.

GIRR Posted June 22, 2009 Share was the taxi driver alone? Yes, luckily, I would've gotten pretty nervous if he had a few friends with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
