Currently in Geneva Switzerland. There are literally thousands of good quality mountain bikes and eMTBs around the city parked up with flimsy £15 locks.

I was riding with two of my mates into a town, bare in mind our bikes are cheap, I got a Schwinn MTB which I use just for commuting around and very light trail riding, planning to upgrade soon and my mates not got anything special either. 3 of us cycle into a town not far away from us and then around 5 lads similar ages to us spot us, we saw them talking to some older teenagers who were also looking at our bikes (these teenagers didnt have their own bikes so i presume they wanted our bikes) I am 14, my mates are of similar age too and these lads were also teenagers. We were driving through Morrisons when they all started following us and asking us to Stop and we just shouted What do you need and kept cycling but they never stopped and then we saw two of them put their hoods up as to cover their face and they attempted to block us in with their bikes, we were able to quickly evade them and one of my mates rammed into their bike and we were able to get away and they continued chasing us until we got into Morrisons and told the security guard at the door that these lads are chasing us and he scared them off by pretending to call the Police. They all fled rapidly when the guard said that. Dont even feel safe in the UK anymore, not gonna let it deter me but I have been avoiding that area completely for a while now. You can carry pocket knife up to 3 inches in pocket btw as long as it doesnt lock, don't need a valid reason either just make sure to never say that it is for self defense and that it is just for emergency use such as a crash etc, if you need to defend yourself or property you can use it and say that you used what you had on yourself to protect yourself and that is legal under UK law. Try ride with someone else but even so eg I rode with 2 others and they attempted so it is never a guarantee stay safe.

Yeah the last time this happened to me I just laughed my arse off so loudly that the lads XL bully they where trying to threaten me with submitted to me and told them that their dogs got better instinct than they do! If you think you can outrun scallies on a scrambler your kidding yourself as its just a waste of energy you might need to defend yourself the best option is stand your ground and let them know that your more than ready to give as good as you get!

This is terrifying, I think about this all the time when im on my bike. There is pros to living in an area where motor vehicles overshadow bikes, nobody is interested in my bike.

I dont think they would of killed him ngl, some of these gangs do carry knives but its mainly to threaten people, they know if they stab someone or kill them theyre getting locked up for years and its not worth it for a bike, ofc there are still lots of idiot gangsters that think its worth it as its the uk afterall

From overseas were they buy any chance? Best to go out with buddies and maybe have a can of mace handy.
