Aye that would be a good idea too, red dye. I'm not one for hurting anybody as what goes around etc.

I've tried to make my bike as much of a pain in the **** to steal as I can though. Steel security shed, anchored in back garden, secure markings etc. But this can't always be done and these *******s just go round looking for opportunities to steal.

Oh no Colin, I'm sorry to hear that, and of course I too hope the thieving *******s ******** fall off and roll down a drain.

Put a post in the Soho section with all the details in it and I'll sticky it - you never know.

I knew YC would have a very simple method for dealing with the problem, awesome. I hope it works out and you don't get too shafted by the insurers or you get it back in better nick than you left it because they cleaned it just before they were hit by an unmanned runaway tank.

35 years ago, my little brothers shed would be regularly broken into. Metal grills on the windows would be ripped off, so ingenious little beggar wires it up to the mains.

Who is the first to complain. Local copper. Seems he had been the one breaking in to see what Paul had got. There was a family agreement that we would both do things legally after that. He with a search warrant, we would remove an element of theft prevention. Still the particular copper got kicked out a few years later for other thefts whilst on duty.

So my advise your next bike if you have to park on the street. anchor it round a street light and pinch an electrickery supply from said street lamp.

Really sorry to hear about the bike. The worthless pieces of Sh!t that do this deserve to be hurt. Sorry, but Ido wish them harm. I work hard for everything I have got, and for someone just to come along and take it really makes my p1ss boil.
