Hi,
First post, so no know if this is the right bit of the forum for this, if you're an admin pls move to wherever's best.
Anyway, on way home through Euston back streets last night, 12:45ish, what do we chance upon? Three boys lifting a bike (unidentified - white-framed, new-ish road bike, geared, possibly a Giant, with helmet strapped to the frame, parked on Euston street near the Bree Louise) up and over the post it was locked to, ie nicking it. We called the police, who turned up swiftly, hunted about a bit and went and actually caught them. Amazing, I know.
We spoke to the Police to tell 'em what we saw, and saw that they'd collared two of the scamps and at least two bikes. One being the afore-mentioned white-framed bike, the other clearly a Langster (one of the older green and white-framed ones). So if you came to Euston Street this morning and are wondering with heavy-heart where your bike is, speak to Holborn police station, they may well have it. Hope this helps someone.
