Fred, where were they taken from?
I have a mate who had his shed broken itno recently in Cheltenham looking for his bikes.

Damn, what happened and which part of town were they taken from?

What colour frames and I'll keep an eye out round town.

Mate,

Have you registered it on Immobilise? There are a lot of cross-border villans committing bike thefts, i.e they steal from Cheltenham and dispose of the goods in Bath but as the forces have local databases they are recovered but go unclaimed as the owner can't be traced. Immobilise is a national database and links to a system (thenmpr)only the police can search and access.

Keep tabs on ebay, gumtree etc and if you have a Cash Converters or similar store in the local High Street it might be worth making some enquiries there.

I take it you have reported to the police? Despite some negative perceptions (some justified) it is well worth it.

All the best.

The One one is natural titanium and the Trek was silver. I live just off the Prestbury road, in a quiet area and never left the bikes in view or the garage open, I guess I got seen going into the drive on my bike? I have reported to the police and am going to put an ad to in the local bike shops, I am also keeping a look out on ebay and telling everyone I know. Unfortunately the bikes were not tagged, they were chained and u locked to a wall anchor in a locked garage. The pikeys broke in then gouged the anchor of the wall, cracking the brickwork and must have had bikes away locked together with the anchor still attached! they left my road bike and my wife's road bike.
