Stolen bikes

It’s not as difficult as you might think. My local shops allow me to wheel in my bike, even though the signs on the door supposedly forbid it. Worth pushing your luck sometimes – I just started taking them in without asking and received no objection, so now it’s accepted. Obviously won’t work everywhere though.

Same. And if they object I never go back. A lot of places in Hackney clearly don't mind, but even in the shitehole that is Plaistow the shops near work never complain.
