Salt River, Western Cape
Incident type:
Theft from Vehicle

More about the incident:

Bike was fastened to my Hold Fast bike rack on the back of my vehicle (locked) when I decided to stop for a pie and coffee in Durham Street, Salt River. I travel this road quite often and never had any problems here. My vehicle was parked in the road. I dashed in and after around 4-5 minutes I came back out. Whilst inside I received a phone call from one of my big clients, so my mind was all over the place when I came back out. I jumped into my car and drove off and only after about 2 to 3 minutes I looked back and realized that the bike was gone. I pulled over and saw the bike and lock were missing . I rushed back to Durham road but had no luck in finding my ride. Please be vigilant when transporting your bikes guys. And rather invest in proper locks for your bike racks!
