Harbor Freight cable cutters weren’t involved.

No surprise. Nice things like this are only feasible in countries that are not importing barbarism.

They probably got tired of high TV bills and told a leftist union member to “cut the cable’....

I ride them all the time in Colombia. Faster and cheaper than taxis.

“Gondolas are perfectly safe as long as muslims and antifa are not in the area.”

Don’t forget the “Amish”!

Hey, glad that works out down there.

Where are you located?

Colombia...but currently in Florida.
There’s a cable system in Medellin that goes on for miles.

Nice. I know someone living there now.

How safe do you feel down there?

Safe...I’ve been all over the country. Lived in Medellin for a year. Now we stay mostly in the coffee growing region.
Bogota is probably the worst place but over all Colombia is fairly safe

Okay, thanks.

I was under the impression that we were pretty vulnerable to gangs, abduction, and ransoms down there.

Been going there for about 12 yrs...but there are areas I dont go.
I helped a couple of FReepers plan out trips to Colombia.

Thanks for your response. If it’s reasonably easy to explain, what areas do you avoid?

City slum areas...shady bars. Same as with anywhere. My area in Bogota, north area, I walk around with no problems...but most of Bogota is a shi’ite hole.
