Bogan warning... FUMING!!!
Postby cp123 » Thu Nov 25, 2010 1:50 pm
Short summary here - the rest might come in time...
Be cautious in the vicinity of Woden skate park, phillip college and the grafitti storm water drain for 3 bogans. Had an "incident" there the other night on the way home with 3 against 1 (me). Not happy, time off work, approx 12 square inches of skin off and police action.
person number 1
ethic origin (can i say that?) - greek/italian. Shoulder length tight black curly hair (kind of a curly mullett), white singlet. white baseball hat (possibly with writing on it). Dark blue or black track suit pants with a white stripe up each leg and press studs as well. average height - (i dunno) but under 6ft. And a spray can of something that eats away skin!
number 2 - tall, quite skinny, 6ft or so, or taller. baseball hat, jeans, polo shirt of some sort, and number 3 - well, I didn't get enough chance to look before taking off as quick as i could.
Angry, pissed, you name it, I am it. I am woman hear me roooarrrr!

Not good. Not good at all. If the police have given you a reference # for the incident post it here. That way anyone who has potentially spotted these three can quote it back to police. Stay safe.

Ouch! Glad you are OK.....kindof. Any more details that may help others avoid the same situation ie. were they waiting for someone on the bike path, did you happen to just ride past them and they got nasty.

I have stashed a mini cricket bat in my back pack and it doesn't weigh much - fearsome weapon if you need it.

Ain't been back here recently. And ain't ridden since (mind you - last week's rain helped there...). I'll come back and write up the full story. I've spent the last 2 weeks thinking how could I have avoided it? did i do something wrong? If it happened again...

Stick to the roads. I've heard a few a few nasty stories about incidents on shared paths.cp123 wrote:Ain't been back here recently.

I ride, therefore I am. But don't ride into harm's way.
