After referring a chance sighting on eBay to the police I've been reunited with my singlespeed, which was nicked out of my friend's shed last month.
An arrest has been made and I can't say too much more at the moment as the wheels of justice are still turning, but a big thank you to the Bristol (North) Burglary Team at Southmead - they worked really quickly and were great to deal with.
When the dust settles I'll try and post a bit more detail on my blog at http://stolenbristolbikes.blogspot.com/ but in the meantime if you've had a bike nicked keep your eyes peeled and don't lose hope!
Brilliant 🙂
That's great news. Really pleased for you 🙂
Now you can sell it and buy something decent 🙂
Yay!!
Back from the Edge, yes?
😉
Cool news Mr Agrreeable. That many ****s nicking bikes out there that some eventually find their way home again!
I got a mates bike back on Wednesday (i posted the story below)
Excellent news.
Can you say which area of Bristol it turned up in?
zbonty, I read that story, inspiring stuff. Glad I got the police involved though as there's now a possibility that a scrote will be brought to justice.

What like a shonky old Kona? 😉
I'm definitely not going to sell it, in fact I might buy it some new tyres to celebrate.
Excellent. Maybe a box of chocs for the police team for doing their job properly?

Kingtut, can't really say too much at the moment for the reasons given above.

I was thinking more along the lines of something drinkable, if that's not against the rules. 😆
