Apparently last night some scrote nicked a bike from Will's garage (before you all panic, not the Triumph)
It's his CB250G5 that I think he's posted pictures of before:
I know most of you aren't from round these parts but if anyone happens to see it (or finds it on ebay or gumtree or something) then get in touch with Will or me ASAP.
Cheers

Cheers guys.
Its in the Canley area of Coventry. Between Charter Ave and the railway. Just seen it, but they got away from me. Have been given a name of Chris..
Let this be a lesson in how to lock the damn door when finished in there. Thank fook it wasn't the workshop!
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

Surely you must know a few people handy with an iron bar or a pool cue in Coventry that could assist in the recovery??

It wouldn't be so bad if they nicked it because it was a bike they wanted, not that I would want that to happen to one of my bikes.
But to use it just to piss around on until it breaks.......
It just makes me so bloody annoyed. If I was closer I'd be out giving you a hand looking for it and teaching these lowlife scum a life lesson

I have my local contacts on the case. I even said to dibble that I hope they catch um before anyone else over there does, as I fear for the safety of those who're caught with it. Of course I do hope plod don't catch up with them as it's been a while since I've had to remove peoples fingers.. Wouldn't want to lose the 'touch' now, would I?

Little scroats! No respect for anybody or anything. However, watch you don't end up as the one plod gets hold of. Those criminal types have a knack of wrigggling out of the process with pathetically lenient penalties while normally law-abiding citizens get well slapped for one provoked transgression.
