I'm really sorry to hear about this, I know how you feel, I had two bikes stolenfrom the same garage many years ago

Time to think about going silly on the security stakes now. Two disc locks, alarm, anchor etc.

Good luck on your search for a new winter bike.

whichever forum you look at, there's at least a bike a day stolen.

The police don't care, the insurers increase their prices, the alarm manufacturers get rich selling their pointless gadgets for insurance discounts...

Short of wiring you bike up to the mains every night or shelling out a grand in security, how do you to stop these feckers???!!!

I use a Jack Russell.Ive no idea what he would actually do if push came to shove(probably lick the scrote to death)but he does seem to be a good deterrant.
