to be honest, the loss could well be down to "a momentary lapse of reason"
i thought i locked it to the bike lock bar outside kennington post office ,
i lent the bike against it and thought i d locked bike to the bar, i was actually under quite some stress due to personal matters at the time, so my eye may well of been off the ball -

Stop beating yourself up: locked or not, some cunt helped themselves to what wasn't theirs.

Hello,
My road bike has been nicked out of my garage beneath my flat. I'm in the SW17 area
The bike is a black Bianchi Via Nirone C2C, like this one:
Only difference is it has a celeste saddle and bar tape.
If anyone spots it, please do let me know. I'm gutted.
My number is 07825000146

It sucks!
What's worse is that it was stored in my garage, which was locked and had a padlock over it.
The padlock has a small hole in it where it looks like its been drilled, but it still works. The scene looks completely as it should be. Obscenely professional job. I'm devastated and in complete shock at how they did it, perplexed as to how they knew it was there too. Not a nice feeling.

Bit late in the day for this but I had my garage broken into last August and five bikes plus a number of carbon race wheels stolen. I've been scouring ebay and Gumtree every day since but I've seen nothing. Hoping perhaps someone on here might have seen something.
Most conspicuous bike is my Look 586, size M, which I'd personally converted to Campag EPS, battery under BB (and removed the cable stops). Pretty sure it's unique as EPS as never an option on that year/colour. It also had a unque mech hanger wich I'd CNC milled after the original got broken in a crash at Hillingdon. Red/black 3T stem and Ksyrium ES wheels when stolen, not as photo.
Loved that bike, it was truly mine. Raced it, did the Etape and Dragon Ride on it, commuted, chain gangs, everything. Want it back!
The BMC is nearly as precious, my daughters race bike. A lovely, lovely bike. Wheels too, the Cosmic SLR and Corimas were fab wheels.

Two thefts from garages on this page. If you didn't have wall/floor anchors in place, get them (and heavy Almax chains or similar). Make the thieves work harder. I've had thieves break into a storage area but give up on the anchored bikes.

Hi
My bike was stolen from my hallway (Near Peckham Rye park/East Dulwich) over Christmas whilst I was at home up North. It's highly unlikely I'll ever see it again, but I built it almost from scratch and spent quite a lot of money on it recently so it's worth posting something in case anybody sees anything.Description -
- Silver resprayed frame with a matt black seat tube
- White and red seat with a rip on the back
- White-walled rear wheel with brand new Shimano hub, almost brand new black front wheel (Both quick-release)
- Continental Gatorskin tyres (700/23 - Folding)
- White Deda bartape, Short Deda drop handlebars and Stem
- Single speed
-Silver brake levers with black hoods
Cheers

Finally found the right thread to post this in!
My friend had her bike stolen a couple of days ago around Hackney. It's registered and has been reported to the police. Afraid I don't have the frame number yet.
We're keeping an eye on gumtree and bikeshd.co.uk, and we'll also be going down to brick lane on Saturday morning in case it shows up there.If you see this bike, please get in touch. Would love to get her back.
Dawes Galaxy, 531 tubing, dark blue
(about the crappy lock in the picture - she knows, and regrets.)

as far as my own loss, i was in the area where it was last sighted, and saw two be tracksuited types riding bikes that seemed unfitting, both white, one in his 30's in the afore mentioned trackie, they confirmed they were from the area, but said they had not seen it
the term Cinelli the next machine is pretty well seo'd , linking back to me, one theory (perhaps a little too romantic)is that someone may have bought after the day it was seen and offered for sale, and upon a web search, would realise it's mine and stolen and keeping low with it in an attempt to let it ''cool off''
just a theory, i aint no poirot
