Got my brooks saddle stolen twice yesterday...yes TWICE.
Was chained to the railings in London Fields along with about 30 other bikes, went for a ten minute wander, and came back to catch the dirty thief red-handed pulling my brooks of my cycle in broad daylight in front of everyone. After a little cafuffle, I got it back. He was some old sad pisshead.
Anyway, I've been meaning to scratch my name and number into it and after that I thought, I'll do that when I get home. Unfortunately home didn't come round soon enough. I went to the royal oak on Colombia Road, locked my bike up right outside the door, and when I came out the saddle had gone. Bloody scummers.
It was an old, not well looked after, B17 standard, so nothing fancy. Fit my ass perfectly though. It's been on my bike for a good year and a half and never had any problems before.
