I’ll add some more details later..

😥

ouch 🙁

Hope you get them back.

Sorry to hear that, were they stolen from the house? There’s been a real spate of burglaries in Bristol in the last month or so, the police now seem to be treating this with the seriousness it deserves. Post this up on Bristol Stolen Bikes.

They are a bit obsessed though with the “followed home from Ashton Court” theory and are maybe mixing up cause and assocation. They’ve had some success nicking juves who’ve stolen decoy bikes from the street, but I’ve not heard too much good news about the more serious stuff unfortunately.

I’ve had recent advice from the police to install dusk til dawn lighting, lock bikes to a ground anchor even when inside the house, make sure your double glazing is properly sealed from the outside and get some barbed wire anti-climbing paint.

I hope you were insured?

taken from first floor room while we were away.

Insured but not for full amount..

****, hope you get em back mate.

Argh. I have to say, I wonder if this very forum is a really useful tool for bike thieves, all it takes is to post a pic of your bike, then click on your profile…

They have just finished dusting for prints.

😥

That sucks Leku!

Hope you get some kind of ride and some saddle time soon!

In Bristol will keep my eyes peeled

Sorry to hear that. This seems serious now mine was taken recently quite nearby – eyes are peeled.

Police need to treat this as organized crime. It’s beyond petty theft and brazen¡

Also it had a homemade Sugru bash plate underneath on the swing-arm.
