Bastards tried to steal my bike!

[cave weta]

Yesterday I was in a supermarket on the way back from a ride and while I was in there someone tried to take one of my rental bikes off the trailer.

They all had a steel cable passed through the wheels so the cheeky pricks gave up.
But it was a nasty scare! I was parked right out in front of the checkout area
in the dropoff zone cos Im always paranoid about parking down the back where there is more room for a trailer. thamk god I parked there. the Manager said that the cameras look out through the window and he should have footage of the culprit- I have to go back today and see....

It got me looking on the net for secure ways of carrying bikes and I found This:

They are just the bees knees! Stainless Steel reinforced webbing tiedowns with stainless locks and hooks!
I reckon these with a trailer lock and you are set!

i had the same thing happen, i was parked at a motel for one of the epic events rides in taupo, i backed the ute right up to the window in my room, when i came out in the morning all the straps were off, if i didnt have a chain and a big padlock through the wheel it might have gone!!! sometimes it just doesnt pay to have nice things. sad.

They've gotta be the dumbest pricks to undo the straps and find that it had a lock on it. Losers

[martybabe]

It's sad that you have to take these precautions but you do. I'm afraid we share our world with these thieving scum buckets and there's nothing to be done but weld everything down.

Glad they were foiled this time mate.

I got followed home from the dairy 1 day (it was only just round the corner, but silli me takes any chance 4 a ride) and had it parked behind the house but not in garage as was goin out again in 20min and the cheeki wankers came right up da drive an wheeled it out while I was in da kitchen an 2 other flaties home! thank god I'd brought my keys inside!! SO they were off wheelin it down the street an stupid idiots stopped 2 rob another house on the way; got chased by the home owners an had 2 ditch my bike! was on the fone 2 da cops when they found it. very lucki. I almost cried when I saw it gone!!!!

What goes around comes around the shit bag crims will get theres oneday when they suprise the wrong person one day.

Had 2 bikes stolen from my home about 6 months ago ,got a call from the cops last night, they busted a warehouse in south aucks and my bikes were there so very happy, the bastards should have there knee caps blown off.

[slimjim]

Yup ..very sad state of affair's.......lucky they didn't unhitch the trailer and drive off with the trailer..........

[westie]

Had a mate with a seat that was electrified. If the kill switch was on and some one sat on it then they'd get however many volts in the arse
Might be a good idea to get one back(or have a laugh at unsuspecting mates)
