Delgado Posted February 11, 2010 Share Just heard that a work colleague was attacked whilst out riding near home. He was robbed and stabbed by the assailants but was not killed. I don't have exact details but I do recall him living out near Irene somewhere so just keep the eyes wide open folks. I will try and attain exact details and post them................

HowellingWulf Posted February 11, 2010 Share Man! That really sucks. Hope your colleague heals up quickly and is back on his bike in no time. Is it just me or does this kind of thing seem to happen more often?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibles Posted February 11, 2010 Share This is really upsetting. Hope your friend is okay. Cyclesport had a meeting with the police about all these attacks in January. Not sure what the outcome was though. See https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=72133&KW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwynn Posted February 12, 2010 Share Always be wide awake when you see okes crossing the street or hanging around for no apparent reason. Plan what you are going to do should you be attacked. Think of a couple of scenarios and prepare yourself mentally for each one of them. Sorry to hear about your friend. Please convey my best wishes to him.
