Beware of the opportunists

**Squiggles** · 3rd June 2009, 18:02

I've gotten away with it for about 5 years now, leaving my gloves in the helmet, but not anymore!
Probably an opportunist with cold hands, although they were better disguised than usual so perhaps another person snooping around the carpark... So keep your eyes out, They're fairly distinctive and im the only one i've seen in Aucks with them

Might give us some leads on the thefts from last year if its not an opportunist!

An excuse to go shopping

That's balls. I better not leave mine wrapped in my jacket anymore.

I left my gloves on the bonnet of a car two separate times for an hour or more when i've parked down in cp36. Was bloody glad to find them there when i went back to my bike.

What size, If I have some left I will flick you up a pair

**Real_Wolf** · 3rd June 2009, 18:24

I stick mine in my tank, along with all the other stuff I have to store...

See that's what you get for buying blue gloves, too easy to spot.
The theif probably also noticed your lack of matching gear, shouldn't you be wearing adventure gloves?

i often leave my gloves in the helmet as well. i love the fact that they have little tags so they can slip over the helmet lock as well. still not much of a deterrant, but better than nothing.

sucks that yours got nicked... probably only a kid looking for shits and giggles. wouldnt be surprised if they were in a nearby trash can.

That's shit eh?! F'n pricks stealing people shit. Hope someone catches them and smacks them in the head

Man that's crap. Lol always thought doing that was a bit dodgy though! You have a locker for a reason

Yeah well, usually take my jacket to the first lecture of the day. Tend to leave em behind in the theatre. Not bad to get away with it for so long.
Might be someone checking out my chain as it runs through the helmet...

Yep, and a peaked helmet.

Thieving cunts. Tough luck man.

**Cheshire Cat** · 3rd June 2009, 19:15

Never! But still... what's the world coming to?

Well we lock our helmets to our bikes

I definitely don't leave my gloves though haha. But yeah as Stephen's said, he's done it for a long time, and someone would've actually have to have been fully snooping round his bike to discover them.
