Local Mountain Bike Gunpoint Robbery Caught On GoPro [Video]

The thing this armed robber didn't take into account, is that every South African cyclist has a GoPro camera permanently mounted on their pip from birth. That thing is not for show - you've been busted, buddy!

The thing this armed robber didn’t take into account, is that every South African cyclist has a GoPro camera permanently mounted on their pip from birth. That thing is not for show – you’ve been busted, buddy!

This happened on May 31, in Somerset West.

Our source had this to say:

MTB ride on Saturday 31st May 2014 from Ongegund, last few km’s before end of session. Armed gunman and 2 others stopped myself and took cellphone, car keys, oakleys and bike.

Fortunately they did not have a clue what a GOPRO was and this is the evidence that will assist in their prosecution!

Smile!

Shouldn’t be too difficult to nail this guy.
