    Went around Southmead this morning and spotted a youth on my bike. Immediately rang the police with my location and no one was sent. No available units. Thought of dashing out of the car to run after it but knowing how rough it is around there I didn't want to run the risk of being stabbed or worse. Police are too scared to touch them I'm guessing. God knows where it is now. What the hell happens next. Why wont they do anything? Isn't that what we pay them for. Serve and protect and bring people like this to justice!!!!

    ahh mate.. that is sweet as well.. i feel angry for you that some little pikey has that so undeservedly.

    it's too easy to get intimidated by these southmead chavs.. need to start taking it back by force if the fuzz arent interested.. cycling city but nothing is being done about the theft..

    it's always southmead as well..

    Hi there,

    Odd one here as I saw a Grey/Silver Zesty being ridden in Bedminster yesterday (Fri 19th Feb) when I was out on my road bike. I noted it as I have a Lapierre bike myself.

    Sadly I cant say where he went, but odd given that is the only Lapierre I have seen in Bristol and its appearance the day after yours was nicked.

    Pete.

    Got to be honest, no. But I did a double take such was my shock to see this bike on the road....being ridden by someone not looking like a bike rider or MTB'er.....

    Hope it leads to something.

    Good luck getting your stuff back mate.

    The police appear to be worse than useless on these things, some of my stuff was stolen last weekend and two days later I saw a chav bastard riding a bike with my back wheel on it. Phoned the police and they did nothing. CID haven't even been round my house to ask what was taken or see the crime scene. I will start phoning them every day from Monday.

    Next time you see it I would suggest taking it back, if it is safe to do so.

    Indeed MeddIE. I shall if I do and I can. Good luck getting your stuff back to. I'm doing the rounds tommorow. Picures and description to all the bike shops and police staions in the city. Another of my much needed days of wasted trying to get my shit back.

    Good luck mate - I actually reported a BLATANTLY stolen FSR to the supposed cycle theft specialist officer, telling him exactly where and when he could find it each day and a description of the pikey riding it. Surprise surprise nothing was ever done and I still see him every day.

    I reckon it's time everyone who rides in Bristol practices their clothesline technique........

    And for what it's worth, if you want to round up a few Bristol MTBers to go and "recover" your bike, let me know. :D

    Bet if you knocked the scroat off your bike the police would come running sharpish.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.
