More about the incident:

It happened at approx 4.30am on Main Road, Woodstock, heading to Claremont, close to the Woodstock Quarter. I was cycling alone (on my way to meet up).  Three or four guys jumped out from the sidewalk and tried to get me off my bike. I thought I'd managed to get away from them, but I think they must have got something into my wheel, or destabilised the bike some other way, so I went over the handlebars. I didn't get a good look at them, and I have no recollection of events after going over my bars until the security at Woodstock Quarter woke me up inside their building. I saw no weapons.  Reported the incident at Woodstock SAPS, and the ambulance took me to Chris Barnard. X-Rays showed no breaks, but the doc said there is possibly some tendon damage. Mild concussion, some cuts and grazes on my face and shoulder but no other injuries.
