Long Shot – Stolen Bikes

Yesterday I had two bikes stolen from a secure bike shed (not as secure as I expected) – they are two one of one custom painted Santa Cruz blurs which are highly distinctive as one is bubblegum pink and the other nardo grey and both are a collection of non-standard after market parts.  The bikes have value but also huge sentimental value as my wife and I have ridden and raced together on these bikes for years all over the world.  Any tips on how I might recover (I know a long shot) gratefully recieved – I have alerts and saved searches on all the major online marketplaces and am sourcing any local CCTV I can but sadly think will never see again.

I’m sorry to hear of your thefts. It may help if you give us a rough area where they were stolen from so people can be extra vigilant in that locality? Good luck with their recovery.
