Thieving Scum

Just read an article in the local paper (Redditch Standard) about some unfortunate individual, ( it doesn't state if male or female) in Feckenham who had £24000 worth of bikes and accessories stolen!! A De Rosa, An Opera Time (sic), and various track bikes and expensive wheels were taken.

Some thieving toerag must have known exactly what he was after. :x
The problem is we are not eating food anymore, we are eating food-like products.

    Thief(thieves) removed bars and wheels to get all the bikes (6) through a small window in the cellar.

    But I thought all thieves were just completely random and indiscriminate opportunists.

    Yep, it takes time and love to build up a collection.
  • I don't think that it matters whether it's £24,000 worth of bikes or just the bike that you've spent the last six months piecing together yourself.
    It's still totally devastating. :evil:

    Can we fix it?
    Yes we can!

    I realise that dmclite may be a bit irritating and his posts not to everyones taste but I must say I think that is a little out of order.

    Play nicely boys, except with the thieving scum.
    I was quite shocked recently in the pub when a sometime mate asked me about a good second hand bike on Gumtree, I said it was probably nicked at that price and he siad he didn't care if it was nicked if he was benefitting from it! Bit of a c0ck really.

    Wait for him to buy it & then report him to the police for handling stolen property.
