Hi all, just thought i'd share this with you- after a recent spate of thefts from sherwood pines, some bikes stolen were even locked up, just read this on the club website:

Bike thieves captured at the Pines Sunday whilst in the act of stealing bikes! 3 arrested in a vehicle, 2 further captured in the forest hunted down by the police helicopter! Staff at the cycle shop spotted suspicious activity, chased the offenders through the pines car parks and alerted the police who stopped the vehicle outside the Dog and Duck PH. Can't go into further details as this is an active criminal investigation.

    Good! Some right scumbags around that area. (I say this coming from Nottingham myself. Glad I don't live there anymore.)

    Pi$$ off, actual properly locked up bikes were stolen? No chance, as if theives can cut through those fantastic gold rated locks.

    This is a hoax.
