Have You Seen This Car?? Assholes trying to steal Bikes

[deanohit]

Already got the cops informed.

I think mark needs to calm the hell down for a start. Vigilante justice won't get you anywhere, and on this forum it always seems that there are those willing to talk big and never follow through.

Keep a vigilante eye on things, take notes etc. For god sakes, you have a student magazine that 90% of students read, get a poster add placed in it, it is free and it gets the word out. I'd rather be asked to show my key by some randoms than have my bike stolen.

To catch this bastard, we need some fast runners aswell as a decoy

Kim, is your bike up for it? lol
or we can use YamahaR64Life's bike lol

EJ we can use Mt Eden M/c's Moto Guzzi as a decoy but chances will be the scum wont be able to start it with a screw driver as its got an security ignition system plus an immobiliser light that blights every 5 second same thing like my Honda and the R1.

Isn't that how the saying goes?

It's a depressing situation in general, where honest people try their best not to have their stuff pinched. Many of us take out theft insurance, buy disc locks maybe even an alarm - but at the end of the day if some wanker sees something he likes, he'll take it.

Auckland University is a prime hunting ground for criminals, I mean where else are 3-400 bikes lined up on a busy but unmonitored public street. And theiving they have been over the years. Who knows how many motorbikes and bicycles have been stolen over the years? Our club has listed 3-4 thefts in the last month or two.

The uni has now built swipe card lock up cages for bicycles because the problem was so bad, but road-parked motorbikes aren't so lucky. Yes, us students can rally together, raise awareness - and even have the odd breakthrough like Bomma's today, but other than becoming vigilantes, or leaving our bikes at home, what else can ya do?

Nevertheless, I salute you for your efforts today Bomma and its great to know that someone is keeping a watchful eye over our bikes. A shame the theives car was also stolen preventing us/the Police from tracking them down...

They'll or someone else will be back to prey on the uni bikes, let's hope we have better luck in the future in nabbing the f$%@kers!

Good on ya bomma. Hop you guys get the fucks

I was walking down there and ran into nish just after it happened, scary stuff I dont know what I would if mine got stolen.

Ive seen the guy on the aprilla come a few times (before it was stolen) he seems to pitch up around 8 8:30ish in the morning. well he did before the break. If I see him come in the morning and still parking parallel ill just go talk with him

Lets get those noobs before anymore of our bikes talk a walk

nish for president :P

[bomma]

nish for president :P

haha more like "nish for enforcer"

No its :
"Asumption is the mother of all fuckups, and her church is in Onehunga"
I kid you not - the church of our lady assumption is in Onehunga.
Its nice to see there is a church for all the fuck ups.

Hey Bomma,

Damn well done mate. I hope the cops do something but with their "limited resources" I don't know how much they could do.

Anyway don't want to use past examples to predict the cops future behaviour.

Hope something happens. Always post such things on KB. We have enough support here on "both sides of the law". So if there is a chance of catching these germs something will be done.

McJim we do have military snipers on the site, as well as internationally ranked power lifters, people with proper surveillance equipment and others who know how to hurt and done hard time for it. It's just a matter of collating all these resources at an opportune time if such a moment recurs. However, don’t worry the cops will catch him …

White coons. They're the worst.

This is how I feel about bike thefts:

If I catch one of them, I would take his screwdriver and insert it nicely into one of his pupil

ah, thats before he does that to me lol

[deanohit]

First his arse, then his pupil. =)

Arn't we KBers a nice bunch.

its called self defence.
you then can kick the shit outa him and leave, or leave him with the screw driver sticking out his eye and call the cops

id go with doing the first because if the cops get him hes only guna get a few hours community work.

[motorbyclist]

yeah that's what i think too; if they are only going to get a slap on the wrist we might as well beat the shit out of them - they might get discouraged that way
