FOUR TYCO BMW RACE BIKES STOLEN
Four Tyco BMW race bikes [listed below] were stolen from one of our race transporters between the hours of 10.30pm on Sunday November 27th, 2016 and 6.30am this morning, November 28th, 2016. The location of the theft was the Premier Inn, Birmingham NEC/Airport, Northway, National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham, B40 1QA.
We have already been informed that the bikes were taken away in a white Ford Transit van, so if anyone was in the area and saw anything suspicious between those hours, please contact us directly at TAS Racing [028 8674 8097] or ring West Midlands Police on contact number 101 and ask for PC Shaw [21901].
Even the smallest bit of information could help return what is a huge investment by TAS Racing, so please do ring either number if you can add anything to our search for the missing Tyco BMW machinery.
Team Manager Philip Neill, said: “We put our heart and soul into motorcycle racing and these bikes have real sentimental value. For this to happen is just devastating, especially as the bikes were only at Motorcycle Live so that race fans could see them up close and personal.”

After all the effort BMW went to in order to keep the scruffy masses off their machines as well, there's a bit of irony that Alanis Morissette could appreciate.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

I don't think she could appreciate it as, judging by the lyrics to that song, she doesn't really understand the definition of irony.

It's rubbish. I hope they don't end up in the same place as the WD40 bikes at the start of the year.
