This intrepid adventurer Yogesh Alekari gets to Nottingham only for thieves to lift his bike. Broken feral Britain at its finest….

Yes, spotted that on a local FB group.

Wollaton Park is not exactly renowned as scrote central so a bit unlucky but bloody outrageous all the same. Hope someone spots it. From the clip I saw of the toerags, they didn't exactly look like pros.

Same as Itchy Boots in Swansea, and about a dozen non "famous" visitors to Edinburgh...

Nobody seems to care about bike theft in the UK...

I met three Germans in Kincardine O'Neil at the beginning of the week who had ridden round the NC500 and were back on their way down to the ferry at Newcastle. They had a couple nights to spend in Edinburgh on the way so I warned them about the bike thefts there. They were only too well aware and said that pretty much everyone that they had stopped with and discussed their route with mentioned the same thing. They brought chains with them on their trip for the sole purpose of parking in Edinburgh, they never even looked near them for their trip so far.

I'm on a few FB euro tour type groups and it's the first thing I warn anyone about if Edinburgh is mentioned in their plans..
