Mountain bikes stolen (Basingstoke)...

[SteveTusc]

Hi guys,

Just had a call from the misses to say that our shed was broken into last night and both our bikes have been nicked! I'm in the process of calling police etc but wondered if I could ask a favour of people on here. If you see a white Cannondale or a grey Felt being punted for cheap could you tip me off please. I'll be keeping an eye on ebay etc.

Sorry that my first post in this section is asking for help, I hadn't realised there was such an a active regional forum. I'll be sure to come again and will hopefully post something a little more positive next time.

Cheers
Steve

Will keep a look out.
Thieving Pikey Scum again I've no doubt.

Had the same two weeks ago, they cut my locks off,

Specialized Rockhopper, Orange 17in frame,

scum total scum, should put them down to stop the cycle.

Cheers SVTRick, I'll get back to you on the boots

Super Veloce- Yeah similar thing here. They've smashed off the padlocks to the gate and the shed door.

Had a scan around the local area I can see there is a new gathering of pickeys in a field a mile or so away. Reported it to the police but don't expect anything to come of it.

We have CCTV here but the community police appear to be more interested something else.

7th bike from here in 3months.

Took them 7 days to call me back so slow its unbelievably poor.

Had a bike nicked from the town center a few years ago. Utter sthole devoid of anything of note, apart from the surrounding villages.

What sort of Felt? I am looking for a new (to me) mountain bike, so might see it on my travels.

It was a Q800S. Only non standard thing was SPD pedals.
