Pity thats the best they could do though …

He didn't pay much attention to the well known ban on nicking other peoples stuff. Makes you wonder what good this will do doesn't it.

Knicked thousands of quids worth of gear = long time in jail. Anything else is nuts.

JUDGE: 'you've been a very naughty man, now promise you won't go near Harrogate again to steal other people's property'

THIEF: 'yes, your honour, I promise. do you want me to stop taking drugs and drink whilst i'm at it?'

not likely is it!
totally pointless and a waste of money IMO

So is he ok to wander around anywhere other than harrogate, pinching whatever he likes.

Great looks like he'll travel 10 miles to York and start stealing our bikes.

He has one of those faces, you know, you would like to smack f£cK out of the thieving ****t and not stop until you couldn't lift your arms any more.
