Funny thing, i believe i saw it (parked next to a trailer) thought "Thats taking a risk, hope no-one steals it". Sadly there is always some opportunistic thieving low life, cruising on their dole cheque, just looking for something to nick!

Just got back from BRONZ Otago meeting. Scooter gave the bike a mention there.

And SPONGEBOB!!!! No I was not scoping it out!!! I drive past Monday - Friday and sometimes Saturday for work. :2guns:

Have been since October. That would be too much effort just scope out an old bike....

But, then, maybe that's what I want you to think...........:confused:

The "Venereal" was Daz's daily rider

Rode it home from work, but didnt put it away immediately.

Came back later, it was gone.

Looks like you can't leave your bike on the street any more :(
