Hello
I started an account here to simply try and find my bike, but it says i have to post 3 times before I can start a thread so hope nobody minds me making a start here. I'm looking for my beloeved pashley poppy in pink and need help! I have started a group on facebook, please invite everyon you know and join yourself. There is a photo of my bike there and th link is http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?v=wall&ref=ts&gid=10150120859850790
"Hello. My bike was stolen from the Queen Mary University of London campus, in Mile End, East London, on Thursday the 11th of March, between 10:45am and 1:10 pm, and I am desperately trying to trace it. It is not only of great financial value, but sentimental value as well, as it was a present from my Father who is currently very unwell. It means a lot to me.
FEATURES YOU MAY RECOGNISE.
• Make is Pashley and model is “Poppy”.
• Bright barbie pink.
• Vintage style frame.
• Straw basket on front which according to CCTV footage may have been removed.
• Matching mudguard on front and back.
• Silver bell on left hand handle bar.
• The leather on the saddle, which is manufactured by Brooks, is worn slightly on left hand side.
• There are two large black marks on the bar that runs between the legs.
• Pashley Poppies have a built in silver pump usually placed under the saddle, behind the rear wheel – my bike doesn’t as this is missing. There is a massive gap where this should sit.I parked my bike with a proper lock at the bike racks just between Drapers Lecture theatre and Library square. At 10:45, CCTV showed a man dressed in dark clothing, with a dark back pack, and a light coloured beanie hat pushing a pink bike, with a very similar body frame to me, though minus the basket, down past the Physics buildings and onto Mile End Road. I have filled a report with police and security. If you perhaps know any information of the whereabouts of my bike, it would be in your best interests to get in contact with me. All Pashleys carry a unique identification number which can NEVER be removed; it can always be tracked. If you know any information and wish to share this with me, and perhaps even return my bike to me, which as I said, is off huge sentimental value to me, please call 07545784821. No questions asked. The police are in the process of tracking and have CCTV footage.
Thank you for your time."
If you can spread the word in others ways, please do. This bike means the world to me.
Sumo, can we have more details please? Theres been a string of thefts of expensive bikes lately and myself and a few others think its the same guy.
