Watch out! Broad daylight, we were sitting outside the Woodbine Café, with our car 30 yards away. We were watching like a hawk yet somehow to young lads managed to hightail it with our Orange Fives.

For what it's worth if you should see a..

New style Five. Black with white Mazocchi 44 forks. Gravity dropper and mismatched rims. Silver front Black rear.

Old style Five. Sage green Manitou forks and shock. Made up from the assortment bin.

Great family day out with the kids............ 🙁

18bikes have my mobile number if you should hear anything.

That's a horrible thing to happen. Were the bikes in or on the car?

That's a shocker. Were they locked on, or just strapped on?

That's good news for a change.
Let's just hope they get a bit more than the usual slapped wrists and 15 hours community service.

Whatever punishment they receive should include a week in the newly installed 'stocks' outside 18 bikes 😈

That's good news. Now that you have your bikes back, I can say this without feeling mean. Next time don't leave expensive bikes unlocked in public!
