Been to France to stock up on Booze, came home (Mitcham) to find my shed doors flapping in the wind, and my lovely Charge Plug Grinder gone :(
The gits had tried to force the shed door open, when that had failed, they had started to undo one of the screws that held the swivel that held the door shut, but they gave up on that, and undid the 8 screws that held the hinges on. Including the 4 security headed screws. Bastards.
My bike was sadly unlocked within the shed. The other bikes were locked together, just mine was taken.
photo of bike from unboxing it when it was first bought:
Immobilize sticker on rear seat riser with post code
Rear mudguard broken, and front half still on bike, rear half replaced with SKS Xtra Dry Rear Mudguard
Pedals are now Shimano M324 SPD Pedals
Has a Cateye EL135 on the front, and a Blackburn Mars 3.0 Rear light.
Really really upset at its loss.
Reported it to the police who just shrugged pretty much. Not worth claiming on the House Insurance, as the excess is too high, so have to grin and bear it, and I can't really afford to replace it.
Any ideas as to where to look would be happly recieved. It looks like a pro job, given they had the tools to unscrew the screws, rather than just force them off.
Damn.
