Hey all.

Second time round for stolen bikes for me. Bastards, on their third attempt, finally ripped through the garage roof and went straight in with bolt croppers and took both my MTBs. They left my road bike and my wife’s hybrid, so it was clearly a targeted theft.

Hope the 5-0 do the business, good luck with your insurers.

Such lovely bikes 🙁

Really feel for you!

Ouch. THIRD attempt? They were really determined to get them werent they.

Bugger. Sorry to hear about that Neil. 🙁

+1 Sorry to hear this. What do you have to do nowadays to stop your property getting nicked?? Unreal. Theiving scrotes.

What part of Bristol? I will keep an eye out.

I’ll keep an eye out, Posted them on Uni cycling club for you.

Will keep an eye out.

For it to be a PSA, wouldn’t you need to tell us how to contact the fence?

Sorry.

Really gutted for you, that’s a pisch thing to happen. Hope the police catch them and you get them back.

Thanks all – its Sea Mills they went from – buggers went straight in with bolt croppers through the roof and left the two road bikes (both nice).

Daytime theft too.

M&S once again being amazing, already been given a very good offer (I insured the Zesty declared).

Just not sure if I want to buy another, and if I do, do I buy another nice one?

Yes get another nice bike. Don’t let low life scum ruin your hobby!

Bad luck – will keep an eye out round BS6 and 8.

If you do get some new ones, please take a lot of extra care on security, as it’s a well known ploy for bike thieves to return to places they’ve robbed to look for the replacement bikes.

Is there any place inside the house they could go, for instance?

Neil, I’m just the other side of the Trym from you, Thanks for the heads up.. Mine were taken about 18 months ago they came back the next night to get my road bike so keep vigilant,. I feel your pain.

Get them up on here: http://www.stolenbristolbikes.com/

I keep bumping it to the top every couple of days

Really sorry to hear that. I think most of us have experienced that horrible sinking feeling of realising your bike(s) are gone. I know I have.

What amazes me, is that all these quite distinctive, individual bikes keep going missing…. where do they go?

Broken and sold for parts on ebay. Frames scraped. That’s what I think with no real evidence.

That sucks. I’ve seen you around on that Soul. 🙁

Sh1te. Sorry to hear that.
