Can you help find my friends lost bike?
My friend had just finished off a bike. A nice little Viking single speed with Chta Leigh chain-set, white Blumel's lightweights mudguards. 27" wheels. It's not a very expensive bike, but she really loved it. It was her first build and it's maiden voyage.
Unfortunately while riding along the canal on NYE she lost her balance on the cobbles and fell into the canal at the top of a bridge. It was quite a stressful ordeal to fish her out as there was no toe path and the middle of the night. She was lucky to get out unhurt after falling from such a hight. She was quite battered, brused and in shock.....not the best start to the new year, but at least she is alive.
She returned the next day and could clearly see the bike. we returned an hour later with rope, but the bike had been fished out by someone. she is gutted, and would love to be re-united with her bike. It was at the edge of Victoria park, at the T point of the canal. Between Bridge Wharf, Bow Wharf and Tilburg House.
Any help please?
