    Is the person responsible being encouraged to try very hard to remember where the 4th one is ?

    Any chance you could give us a bit of background on how you got them back Tony? Or would it prejudice prosecutions?

    we knew one was seen locally so we combed the area between where seen and where they were nicked. 2 hrs later we got one 🙂 🙂

    then they all grass on eachother as usual

    Good work.. It’s always worth a try. I got my Chameleon back about 2 weeks after it was stolen many years ago, the usual thing of ask the right people locally and keep an eye out in the right places. Local police were helpful too, if you get info that they may not be able to and help them get an arrest they can be suprisingly interested in nailing the thieving scrotes )

    Good work jedi , nice to hear people getting their bikes back . My bike was found thanks to a member on here seeing it on ebay and dropping me an email ! Didn’t get it back in the end as the insurance company had given me a nice payout 🙂
    Still wish i’d got it back though ….

    will pop out and get the 4th one back tonight 🙂

    I’ll pay your train fair to Bristol, if you could come and help out down here that would be great.

    i figured they’d dump the bike so we headed to panshanger airfield and found the fasttrack tyre hanging in a tree. we know its from the hardrock as we found the chunder front tyre tread leading in too.

    been a fun evening 🙂

    Got 1 of mine back in Bristol after a few months thanks to some keen eyes on here and some good work from the coppers. So, there’s always hope…

    i just received news of a sighting of my recently stolen bike, looks like someones commuting on it so i’m on stakeout tomorrow. (yes, 101 informed and not something they’ll throw resources at, advised me to be safe and call 999 if needed!). Wish me luck.
