Well if you can't think off the top of your head what you could have done to annoy someone then there's no point thinking you have. It could just be a random thing, maybe even someone with a grudge against biking in general, jealousy, a number of things.

This kind of thing affects you more psychologically than owt else, you start treating everyone with suspicion and wondering who it was. Best thing would be to just forget about it and keep a close eye on it. Everyone runs these risks when parking their vehicle in public, you've just been unlucky

It was kind of resting on the white car's bumper. Didn't seem to have taken a massive impact, but I don't think it was laid down.

That sucks, dude. Although at least it was cushioned by a Nissan Micra (they have a use!!!)

Maybe it was the person who nicked your tax frustrated at the fact that it expired!

Looks quite simple to me. I would have said a car has knocked it over whist trying to park.

Both cars were there all night and didn't move. One is ours so I know that, and the other hasn't moved in about 2 months. I had though that maybe a car drove past and clipped my front wheel, but it would have really had to whack it to cause the back to spin round and over. Basically, someone did it. And I am staying up all tonight to hunt for them if they come back.

It's only a pointy. It would have been bad if it were a curvy. Get over it.

Come back and do what, knock it over again? Don't quite see the incentive to do it again, unless they were really trying to make a point. I wouldn't be leaving it on the road, it would be in the hallway or something

I don't see their incentive to do it in the first place! You've got to think like a criminal to catch them. I shall therefore be fornicating with my sister and smoking crack in the stairwell of Blackbird Leys tower block.
