Some utter bastard stole my bike the other day

From outside my house.

It's my only transport - especially now!

And the one thing I enjoyed doing that is remotely healthy.

I'm so upset

And it appears the whole of the UK is on a bike at the moment.

Halfords have literally sold out of everything!

I need Halfords because they build the bike etc .. and repair it.

I'm gutted

It really is - there are no consequences for these thieves either!

People don’t normally steal things because they want it, they usually want to sell it and have the money

Just around the corner

Scum bags, and there seems to be a tot of this going on at the moment.

If Halfords can’t help it might be worth trying a local independent shop. They’re usually very helpful, and not always more expensive. I’m lucky to be in York where there are loads of alternatives, but you might get lucky.

That’s horrible to hear. I had both of mine stolen about 18 months ago and it made me feel sick. As the Police told me, you will subconsciously look at every bike you see to see if it’s yours.

Anything on eBay?

Good luck OP.

Sorry to hear this, the scum of society !!! Probably sell it for 20 quid so I can get a fix !!! Shame worth looking on eBay if you have an eBay account, for a cheapish one, I know you say you need to get it fixed up but there might be one local to you you can go and look at

Is it a competition?

How many bikes does one need to have stolen before you can feel sorry for someone? Is there another cutoff where if you’ve had say 7 stolen it’s your own fault?

Are there guidelines somewhere?
