agreed bro - but what ? They cant s it on top of every cbr in London v easily, but they might circulate the news that 2 (prob more) went missing in N London on Wed night, and the crew might return next night in another area, have some extra patrols and make sure if any light sleepers like me ring when its just happened, they respond with all sirens blazing in the general direction and pull every van with no windows in a 5 mile radius...that way they might hear sirens or have a close call and be frightened enough to think twice about going out next time. IF they were to make the call i had and report a theft, they would be sitting around laughing and the astonishing lack of interest on the behalf of the police...theres nothing to fear except a freak pull, drive sensibly, make sure your light work, you could have your feet up and talk about big brother in between your liofting your targets, literally

I doubt that the stolen bikes will get pulled over...thats only really likely if kids stole them. If an organised gang did it then they are destined to be broken for parts....sad but true

true, MCN recently wrote on the rise of bikes being nicked just for parts

The saddest part for me is that other bikers, most likely racers, will be buying these stolen parts in full knowledge of where they came from. Why else would they be so cheap?

Just be carefull with this one.

Last year I was drunk in my flat at about 5-6 in the morning when I heard a van door slam, then 30 secs later I heard what sounded like interior trim form a car being stripped out or torn. I look out the window but it was coming from up the road and a rather large tree was obscuring my view so I don me dressing gown (though not done up[had me boxers on so don't worry!]) and grab the baseball bat.

I storm out the front door and start walking up the road looking at the cars, I see nothing, then I hear the sound again coming from about 5 metres away, I spin around to see a seagull tearing some bins to shreds and leaving a mess everywhere.

I felt like a complete pillock and hope that nobody else was up at that god awfull time in the morning to witness it!!!!
