  • STOLEN – Orange Blood nicked from Bristol

    My Orange Blood was stolen from my locked secure bike shed outside my house in Westbury Park, Bristol last night at about 8.30. The police are fairly confident I have been followed home from Leigh Woods at some point, possibly the night before.
    The shed has received a sustained attack – they cut through part of it and then crowbarred it open to get the bike out, so have knackered the shed in the process as well as nicking my bike.

    The bike’s very distinctive, some would say tasteless 😉

    sorry to hear… where abouts in westbury park do you live? I’m on devonshire road and for some reason always felt bikes were quite safe here compared to other parts of bristol… hope you get something back from insurance for the bike and the shed….

    Thanks man.

    I’m not a million miles away from you – i think there’s a fairly steady incidence of bike theft around here. The police stated that I will have been followed back from LW/AC at some point, no doubts.

    Be vigilant Brizzle people

    Sorry for your loss! Often wondered about security of those container things – care to share which one it was for our info?

    Asgard ones always looked pretty well armoured, but so much so it might be like putting a sign up..

    Damn. Things have been pretty quiet on the bike theft front after the police started staking out the car parks, but this latest theft shows that the more organised types are still around.

    That’s a very distinctive build. I’d set up saved searches for all the parts on a few classifieds and auction sites, and if a number of them pop up together, you should be able to get the rozzers to pay them a visit.

    Very sorry to hear about your bike. They must have been on one – we got hit sometime last night (St andrews), they broke into our Asgard bike store (looks like crowbar – also wrecked), and cut through the frame of the OH’s whyte 146x to get past the chain.

    Scumbags.

    We got both our bikes taken in April so just hoping this isn’t going to happen every 6 months…

    Just an fyi – I never drive to lw /ac, so if I was followed it may have been by bike.
