Scum….
by Tony on Aug.02, 2009, under Cycling
I had mean’t to put post more past posts before any current posts, however last night my shed was broken into and my bikes stolen
whilst the bikes were nothing special a Carerra Banshee X and a Giant FCR 3, they still were my lifeblood for my weight loss, of course I can go get replacements, but how long before the scum repay a visit and steal my new bikes? I have no alternative than to store the bikes in my shed, having 2 bikes in the house isn’t really an option. This kind of event has been in the back of mind when I have thought about upgrading, when I got to 17st my wife said that it was a massive achievement and that I should treat myself to a new bike,I have been toying with the idea of getting something with a carbon frame, but now I am thinking Raleigh Bomber! The theives broke 2 padlocks, one on the back garden gate and 1 on the shed to get to my bikes locked in turn to each other, quite clearly they were determined to get what they had come for. I don’t live in an area where crime is high, in fact in my avenue in the 10 years we have been here there hasn’t even been a car break in or burglary! So currently my weight loss is on hold and so is my decision regarding buying a new bike
Has the scum won?
