Wyatt Earp Posted October 18, 2010 Share Interesting discussion. I have posted this before, but please read Rory Munnion's take on riding armed, which I've attached below. My personal experience - and my incident happened long before this particular crime became as widespread as it is now - is that they will search you for a weapon. If you have one, be prepared to us it.Ohhhhhh, it's Munton, Munton boet @ Grumpy, as far as I know yes the two Griffith brothers case is the only case where we are certain that a sticky finger was killed.

gummibear Posted October 18, 2010 Share Yes two brothers, the bike jackings came to a dead halt (excuse the pun) If i recall they were arrested and charged with murder Anyone know what the happened with the court case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyatt Earp Posted October 18, 2010 Share If i recall they were arrested and charged with murder Anyone know what the happened with the court case?Never heard the outcome, but they became "national heroes" to the cycling community. Just a thought, can any of you remember a/the school bully, remember what happened to him when he got bliksemed back ?These thugs are bullies and perhaps it's time to take a stand, just a thought.I nominate the Griffith brothers to take charge of the sting operation.

scotty Posted October 20, 2010 Share I had my doubts but watching the SC interview last night seems that bike jacking is an organized scheme, the guy they caught admitted to watching MTB'ers and being told to leave bikes he hijacked at a central point which would be collected later Edited October 20, 2010 by scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted October 20, 2010 Share Ive said this all along, makes you sick to think that its someone involved in the industry or a fellow cyclist. I suppose their will always be dodgy people involved, no matter what the business/industry is. You just wonder who? This may be way off the mark & very speculative but could shops/dealers be involved so that more bikes/parts get sold. It wouldnt be the first time this sort of thing has happened Does make you think though. I think we as a cycling community should all get involved in the eBlockwatch and start looking out for each other more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
