  • @|³|MA3K Did you manage to talk with English Heritage? Do I have the all clear to collect? xD
    Will definitely take you up on the offer regarding the wash.
    @PhilDAS As far as I could see, no. Will give it a thorough look over once freed.
    @pdlouche sure, will do.
    @8b That would be great, however, I think the guy starts work at 9am. I’m not 100% sure...
    If he's there, I told him about it so should be fine to angle grind it.
    If he's not, I'll talk to the second person who starts at 1pm and keep you posted. Do you happen to have some time in the evening, after work to help?

  • Just when I've figured out where it is aswell!
    Scuppered my plans of the perfect heist.

  • Plot twist - the locks in the photo where they're off are actually different locks, this isn't the owner and they've cut the original two then used two identical locks for said photo.

  • ... but left a third one to be angle’d off just for the double bluff

  • Exactly that. So that nobody ever questions where the bike went.

  • How did you deduce this?

    :D

  • Sorry missed this. This evening? can you bring a photo of you enjoying the bike in its previous life? :)

  • Is this a red line?

  • For sure...
    The rear lock is not on the same place too...

  • Is it not? Which pictures makes you say that?

  • Well, the person showed them removing the two locks with their keys above as some kinda proof it’s theirs, so it is likely they replaced the locks in different positions. However there still hasn’t been a “me and my bike” photo that proves any kind of actual person-to-bike connection, short of having a key to a lock.

  • You're right. I'm going to put 2 more locks on it.

  • Better put a lock on the station's electrical plug to be safe

  • I was going to rip it out and take it with me

  • Smart thinking, that's even more safe!

  • Better cut all electricity to the postcode area.

  • It's got to be done from downtown. They've gotta take out a whole city grid.
    We're talking 10 square blocks.

  • Not Xmas Eve, it'll be fine.

  • This forum is full of grafix designerds...

    100% the pics with keys are photoshopped while this forum noob is busy hacksawing all the locks off. Bike to be smuggled over on Eurostar to Belgium for next week's Floringen Kermesse.

  • What if this is staged and just performance art? I think that’s the only logical conclusion here.

  • I feel a bit like I need to express this in contemporary dance.

    ... with a cordless angle grinder?
