Spotted an obviously stolen Lapierre Zesty, think it was a 714 with a carbon back end, being accompanied by two guys in tracksuits (the other was riding an Apollo) hanging round outside a pawn shop doing the "should we go in or not" pre amble. Anyway, they really didn't like me looking at the bike as I walked past, gave me a death stare as I walked off. When I'd gone 100 yards past, they got on the bikes and rode off.
A few minutes later I popped into the pawn shop to question about their practises when it comes to buying 2nd hand bikes etc, it seems the 2 old guys in there are pretty well up on modern bikes, and also for calling the police for stolen bikes. The pawn shop is in St. Johns, just by the co-op on the main road... So if anyone has lost their Zesty, suggest you go hang around there for a but as they're likely to come back I'm sure...
