Hi everyone Im here because Im a seasoned biker and was led here by the theft of two bikes in two weeks, in the vain attempt to find both of them, I do street trials, and my bikes are very unusual in the Metropolitan so I came here in the hopes of spotting them.
Im appalled at the lack of police commitment with stolen bikes, yet they seem to value mobile phones and respond to theft of them, whereas bikes costing a £1000.00, seem to not bother them , A crime is a crime in my opinion.. And the lack of response from the Police looking at the figures here angers me.
And Im sure it angers all bikers here. We are second-class citizens.
I see a stolen Bikes thread here from one of the 'Boys In Blue' stating he's biased against us, Bikers pay tax too to pay the wages of Police, we deserve the same attention as the 'suit' who gets robbed of his phone.. anybody seen a £1000.00 plus phone? and why do they see bike theft as petty, some of us take years to build our bikes. and the theft of one is like losing a limb... Then on Twitter I see a Policeman appealing to the public about a stolen crappy Police pushbike.. Refund me some taxes and Ill look out for your stolen bike Mr Policeman.. because you dont care about our bikes being stolen ,and close cases down without investigating them because they are too frequent, So is mugging! Go figure their mindset
