I read in the Cape Times article (front page, top, yesterday) that the one cyclist refused to press charges when the police nabbed the 'alleged' assailant. What is it with making a complaint to the police, the police doing their work and then the felon gets away because the victim didn't want to go further with the complaint?

 

 

What a muppet !! :angry: What was his reasoning behind not wanting to lay charges?

Perhaps all of us should start riding in the safer parts of the Table Mountain National Park that are currently out of bounds for Mountain Bikers. How about a huge group protest ride directly from the SANParks offices in Newlands forest? That will piss off all the dogwalkers and hikers and get some attention. Done wildly enough it will get into the newspapers even.

Kinda like a Toyi toyi, seems to be the only way government listen, maybe burn some tyres while youre at it.

this would have to be multi-racial to have impact.

 

I can just imagine what the opposition parties (malema) will say if its not... "whinging bunch of white folk with pricey bikes...blah blah blah"!

 

good point, How do we call on non whites wthout making this a racial issue in the first place?

 

Calling all brothers!!

The Green Dot is at a clump of trees where there is a sharp right turn up a very steer track to a beacon. In my opinion and from what I have heard, this is one of the hot spots. The perps hide behind a tree and jump you. You are slow coming up the hill from Rhodes Memorial side and they can run down the hill, turn left at the junction you can see on the map and vanish across the freeway into Obs.

The Red dot is an isolated corner,same as the pink dot. You are not that fast here and there is enough ground cover to hide here. This whole stretch is problematic, from the Pink dot, past the Green dot and further on to just short of Rhodes Memorial.
