Whats a fitting punishment for a bike thief......?
Obviously people pinch bikes every day, but it wasn't just a bike to me - I have so many experiences associated with it.

Round-the-world cyclist's bike stolen in UK
He's been knocked down by a truck in the Chilean desert, chased by a mob through the streets of Haiti, burnt by a volcano in Central America, and arrested and shot at more times than he cares to remember.
But in 44 years on the road, covering 335,000 miles or more than ten times around the Earth, Heinz Stücke has always had his lucky bicycle for company - until this week, when the German 'Bike Man' had it stolen within a few hours of arriving in the UK...
