outside aquatics centre

if anyone has lost had stolen an old specialised geared bike, the stripped down remains were there at the aquatics centre tonight so I've brought what's left home.

chainstay damaged (looks snapped rather than cut) so not much life in the frame m'fraid, might be possible to have tube replaced I guess, might not be worth it tho.

probably pissing in the wind trying to find owner, but worth asking I thought.

Were there vultures with allen keys flying overhead?

possibly, it was dark. there was another half stripped bike still locked up...

club mate was v.lucky, I spotted his nice new trek with 105 groupset was completely unlocked, he'd not clicked his cable lock together. Fixed that and mentioned he should think about getting a d-lock too...

Found a quid in the changing rooms too.

#lucky?

Cable = fail lock. You can break them with a hard stare.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
