Stolen on the evening of Wednesday 8th September in Windsor Berks.

Both bikes are pretty unique, dont seem to be many around.

Cash reward to anyone with information that leads to me recovering the bikes, so any info to my profile email address greatly appreciated.

Cheers Dom.

Where in Windsor? There have been a spate of shed thefts recently. My neighbour lost about the same value of engineering tools. Car drove into their back garden to load up.

Hope you get them back.

Sorry to hear that, there was another 5 spot, stolen from Swinley around 2 weeks back. Posters up around Swinley Forest, and they have a suspect who the police are looking for.

It belonged to one of the main guys who runs the fb group - Dan Hodge, (i've only just joined), might be worth trying to contact him?

Edit - Dan Hoffman sorry, not Dan Hodge, go on the fb group and you can see a post halfway down about it.

I'll ask Son1 to keep a look out at Windsor Boys School. He cycles in daily. The Mongoose is very distinctive, I assume the red bars are your own addition? If I come across them locally, I'll put a lock on them. Did you also pay Cyclelife a visit?

I heard about the swinley 5 spot the other day, from a couple of mates who had just been up there, it is gutting, you tell yourself there only metal & rubber & there hopefully covered. but still dont stop you being p****d off & thinking i dont want insurance i just want me bikes back

The red bars were my addition in fact the frame & forks are the only thing that is'nt on the goose, i was talking to my mate today & we were naming each distinctive thing on our bikes from scratches & rubs to colour of grease used in bearings, its amazing how distinctive your bike can be from one that may look the same when you have to think about it.
Completely forgot about cyclelife will pop in there tomorrow, Cheers.

The 'goose looks really great. Do you promise to "mishandle" the thief when you catch him down the road from yours?
With the number of coppers here I struggle to imagine it's not yet been recovered.
