Sexual predator on the Nth Brisbane Cycling tracks... be careful when cycling alone!
http://au.news.yahoo.com/070102/23/11xtj.html
34 women have been attacked whilst running, walking or cycling alone in the last year. The attacks occured during any time of the day and they guy always gets his victims from behind.
Luckily this guy hasn't KILLED anyone yet...
It's scarey... I was on that track last week. (with BF) I don't think I'd like to ride there alone until they catch this bastard!!! Which is a shame cause it's a BEAUTIFUL track! And it has a full criterium circuit!
So be safe. I know I'm gonna bring up the whole headphone thing but this is a VERY strong case for NOT wearing headphones when Jogging or cycling because this lowlife has previously TARGETED women wearing headphones because they can't hear him coming.
Walk without fear Community Rally
For all those TE members in Brisbane, Australia I'm not sure if you've heard about the Walk Without Fear Community Rally that is happening this Sunday (14th January 2007).
It's in response to the creeps that are committing sexual assaults on women in our parks and walkways. I really think its worthwhile so I will be going along:
