http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4effRyDCoM
Apparently the bike was found 100m away dumped in a back lane when they couldn't get it started. |

Re: Bike thieves in Plymouth
It looked fairly common and a bit grotty, so where could that be? Devonport? Keyham? North Prospect (Swilley)? Actually, having lived in Plymouth for many years, it could be pretty much anywhere near those places. My best friend was stabbed while doing his paper round in North Prospect, because a smack head wanted to steal his mountain bike. My friends was still a child, but the smack head just saw the bike. Horrible place.
And yes, I am sure that most of Plymouth thinks thinks I am pretty nasty too, I am sure that I am greatly missed! In fact one of you guys probably rode past me every morning as I walked to work through the Laira Narrows (another dump!). |
