Stolen bikes

success story last sunday down brick lane

popped down there with a mate to see for myself whether all the hype about this place selling moody gear was true. well low and behold within a few minutes of getting onto the street i saw a dodgy looking chap getting apprehended by the police... looked like he was selling a carerra silver mountain bike. some chap pointed him out then a couple of coppers grabbed him, turned the bike upside down and started asking him some questions. just wish i had my camera with me to get his mugshot to show the scumbag on here. maybe another post should be set up on here to show 'the scumbags hall of shame' or something?

I saw the police giving some bloke a load of grief the previous sunday too. They turned the bike upside down, checked the serial number then eventually let him go. Im not exactly pro-funbuster all of the time, but it was good to see something happening on the bike front.

As they were doing it though, some big mouthed passer by got involved and started going on about how the police were harassing people with nice bikes and the 'wrong look' and wouldn't leave them alone, asking them why they didn't 'check his camera serial' and so on. He followed them half the length of the lane trying to make an example of them. Essentially he was just a busybody who had butted into a situation he wasn't anything to do with. It was really annoying.
