Jippo twats tryed to rob me.

[steveh]

Not 15 mins ago i was sat here browsing BCF when i heard a bang, now with a dodgy fence i thought nothing, but then i thought "its not windy" so i looked out and theres a guy who looked drunk trying to pedal a Bmx, then stopping and just sat there... i kept waching him then out of nowere, right underneath me, this little jippo chav hopped over my locked back gate, into next door, and over theres... i didnt shout anything, as he had nothing on him i just let him clear off further down the road
So i went downstairs got the baseball bat and went out, and wached them going in and out of gardens with his mate.

Anyway, mum phoned the police, they caught them and were given a caution, now theres been a few reports of this the past week or so, and i dont live in a rough area atall.

Out the back i have a Bandit 6, a marauder Gz, a 650 ural cossack, in the shed, i have a norton commando, a thundercat 600 and some shitty nvt. i have a ground anchor in the shed, and chains for the bikes.

What sort of security do you use? i think ill be putting some ground anchors in tomorow.

Steve.

Definitely keep an eye out over the next few nights, and if you don't have one invest in a security light. If they caught a glimpse of a bike or 2 and they were just scouting, then there's a very good chance they'll be back.

i have finally got round to securing my bike to something solid, so if they want it, they will either have to leave the front wheel behind, or bash through a concrete fence post.

Both possible, but more secure than just trusting a disc lock and steering lock, which is all i used before.

the bulb in the security light went a few month ago, but will get putting it in tomorow for sure, as they do actualy work.

the bikes have chains on them, but no ground anchors as yet, and the ones in the shed would take ALOT of effort, griding through angle bar that goes straight across the shed door with a HUGE padlock,
also theres a little tiny lock on the gate, but sneeze at it with bolt cutters and it wud be off, van jobbie.

was only a few days before the bandit was kept on the front, untill my dad saw a lad looking under the cover.

next door has a gsx750 on the front, with cover, no security... and there away.

dont think ill be sleeping tonight.

Automatic security light
Large strong doors
Some very expensive lock on the door
Alarms
And a few 12g shotguns

The alarm is normally enough, as most will just run when this goes off. It worked to scare off the gypos last time they tried to rob us.

Can't say what I have er.... protecting my bike as it is illigal and will cause injury, but I don't know anything about them being there Officer. But lets just say the Fecker will need a tetnus jab or 2.

Cheeky sod!


Theiving scum often come and suss out the site they intend to steal from first, so it would be a wise move to get some extra security for the bikes

Ground anchors would probably be enough to put them off, maybe rig up some kind of alarm to scare them off...

Chain everything to the Ural and leave it in reverse so they can't wheel it away. Then if they want to steal your bikes, they have to take the Ural away too.

haha

go down your local mosh pit and grab a load of needles, stick them onto some board for easy removal when you come in and out,

i'd leave the nasty pointy things by every port of entry I would laugh my ass off. when the cnuts break in and squeal i'd just open the window and laugh cos they now have AIDS

a very fitting punishment one might say, just get rid of the needles before the plod arrive

put a dinner ticket on a piece of fishing gut with some pulleys and some automatic and random motors pullig it all sorts of places, that should keep them occupied until the police comes.

I use a garage under my bedroom with a 9 point locking roller shutter door, an air rifle, and a healthly portion of anger.
