Cape Town - There has been a 75% increase in attacks on cyclists since the easing of lockdown level 4.
This according to the chairperson of the Western Province Cycling Association Sharief Peters.
“Cycling has taken off in Cape Town as means of commuting, sport and recreation. Over the last couple of months, attacks on cyclists have noticeably increased. Previously, we had known hotspots no-go zones, this is not the case anymore. In some cases, riding in groups hoping for safety in numbers has made no difference. We are not safe anywhere on our roads,” said Peters.
