OMG! What is the world coming to?

Man jailed for stealing a bicycle?

I'm surprised he wasn't given an ASBO and a pat on the back...

Shame property is more valued than human life

The cynic in me says he'll be out in a few weeks but its nice to see a fairly positive outcome for a change.

The appeal reached BBC radio DJ Robert Elms and Gary Kemp from the band Spandau Ballet, who raised £700 to replace Jensen's bike. The money was given back.

Gold!

Gold!

"The theft happened two weeks before the 10 mile TT championships last year, but the bike was found and returned in time for the race – which Jensen won"

Golden.

For what it's worth a story like this gets around among thieves and will (probably) deter a few wannabe opportunists.

Punishment should fit the crime. Fingers shoved into a fast spinning bike wheel (aero spokes of course).

Yeah, but so do the stories about drivers killing cyclists by ramming them from behind and getting charged with nothing.

Is that all??

If someone stole my bike i'd ffing want to kill'em

I'm sure it'd change the perpetrator's views on theft being a option too - We're too damn soft in this country!

I like to think I'm fairly liberal in all things. Except bike crime for which I would introduce execution by bacon slicer. (Set to very thin)

I did hear about a fella that was fired from his job for sticking bits of his anatomy in a bacon slicer.....


She was fired too.

I'm sorry, I really am sorry, I'll get my coat.

You'll have to be quick to beat the other people who have gone to get it for you.
I say that but I did actually wince before Ihad finished reading the whole thing.
