Damn, tough luck Gio.
I've had 2 nicked in 20 odd years.
Got one back in good condition, I think they needed a ride home

Gio, really sorry to hear that.

Really sorry to hear that Gio. Be nice to think that they'll catch the theiving B@#*@^ds ..... but I doubt that this will rate highly on the list of crimes to solve (not unless you are mates with the Chief Constable or something).
I had one nicked once - more than 30 years ago now - came out of work and there it wasn't.
It had been stolen to use as a robbery getaway vehicle - was recovered in Essex. Ironically, it was the least reliable bike I'd ever owned.
So besides the loss, I guess it's now a round of forms, paperwork and increased insurance premiums !
Bad luck mate.

ARSE. Really sorry to hear thet matey. how'd they get it? Was it garaged locked etc.?Posted: Tue Feb 27, 2007 11:18 am
Cheers 
Coppers have been round and insurance co told.
I should here more in the next 24-48 hours.
One good thing tho and that is the traffic camera just up the road, police are going to ask for the tape.
No idea how long it'll take to get another bike, but the insurance co said they normally action replacement in about 7 days. I'm told it could even be a new bike as its only 6 months old.
The only downside is it stuffs my trip to Italy at the beginning of April, even if I had a bike by then, if its new I'd not want to run it in on a trip like that.

Bummer Gio.
My dad had his bike pinched a few years ago. Fortunately it was found in the care of a 'prolific young bike thief' and he got it back (damaged). The copper who was an ex-pupil of my dads accidentally mentioned the young thiefs name and address. Needless to say, being the caring and considerate son that I am, the little sh*t was dealt with.
Hopefully the police come up trumps. I know some have had bad experiences but there are positive ones. Fingers crossed for you.
