Bad luck Sad

In the village next to me, some bloke had his mx bike stolen and the thieves dismantled the rear brick wall of his garage to get the bike out Shocked (a little ruder than leaving the gate open Smile )

Go and find it - take a big stick. It's Sunday so that bike will be out in the woods somewhere.

This is what I did when our lad's bike was nicked - followed the tyre tracks up a disused railway line the next morning and there it was hidden in some bushes. We waited around for a bit and sure enough two herberts came along to collect it. One of them I caught hold of and strangled until his face went a deep purple colour the other I caught up with in the local pub a few days later but he was too chickenshit to come outside for a chat.

I remember stepping outside my door one snowy morning to see the shed door flapping in the wind, no lock on it. I got that horrible feeling in my gut, "why didn't they just take the shit one from the patio?", and ventured closer with my head hung and on the top end of sadness. Then realised nothing was missing, and I had merely left the lock off the night before. The relief was even more powerful than the sadness.
Nice neighbourhood ftw.
Sorry about your bike mate, like Geri said, get a big stick and spend the day hunting.

Maybe you've had 1 too many Shrooms Mr Mad Smile . You laugh at loss of bike..laugh more at no insurance and laugh when a family member dies.

Well, if you can't laugh....?

Not really any other way to be,lose my bike And give my self a bad day?..thats reserved for crashes only Laughing

What i meant by having the inheritance thrown into the mix is that its funny iv been rather low on cash for some time and it only gets nicked
when funds are looking really good, i don't actually laugh at people dying but you knew that Laughing.

All my hunt turned up was some kid who did"t put two stroke in his kx,long walk home for him Thumbs Up

Oh well - win some lose some.

Fair play to Mr shroom for not worrying too much.

Personally I think we should leave boobytrapped CGs and GSs lying around on street corners that blow up after being ridden a few miles.

Here's to your overheating front disc, may there be an epic flipping accident Bautista woiuld be proud of.

Thumbs Up

Enter your postcode, then post up a screenshot and we'll point out the best bits to look for it.

Where i live theres only really a couple of places you can look for a stolen bike...

I hear bikes being ragged to bits in the fields behind my house.

Well that's lucky Laughing

See, i leave the GPZ project sitting out front of the shed, so that it's the first they see rather than my perfectly good CG.

Maybe you should do that, leave a complete shitter in the open so they nick that rather than the better shitter Wink

On a serious note though, glad you have the bike back Thumbs Up

No, the wankers that do this aren't sad, or poor they are simply chavs and jippo's with providing parents and not much else to do, that get a kick out of escaping from the police.

I have recovered my brothers bike (TS125) from the local nobs 3 times, once it had burn marks and a rag in the petrol tank but they'd ran out so it wouldn't of burnt anyway....

Police were useless everytime but not everyone can afford to have their bike nicked. Good luck with sorting the mess out. Thumbs Up

Whats the damage to the bike?
