Just read something interesting on my club's forum written by a clubmate's colleague. Does this happen very often, do you guys know?
This happened to me 2 years ago, being nieve I just left a note on the bike saying please look out, since they may have it happen to them and make them late for work/home?
Surprise surprise the note was not needed. The bike had gone! -
Would be good to see this on road, Love the De Rosa!

Another genuine question, do you not have another bike for going around London? I have two bikes, one is my decent road bike that I spend quite some time puting together that I ride out in the countryside, and the other is a cheap OTP fixed wheel bicycles that I used for everything else (training, commuting, hopefully cyclocross etc.).
pitlocking and decent locking method should able to deterred thieves, but not completely with a De Rosa equipped with campag I'm afraid.
I had an old single speed but gave it to a mate that needed some wheels. Your right a De Rosa should not be left but I still cant believe how fast the saddle and post where nicked in the day time. Im in the middle of building a Ti Serotta, That WILL NOT be going out of site.

I only went to grab a coffee with a mate, probb only 200M away from the bike the whole time. Chatted to one of the Police Cycle task guys at the bike show about those seat locks. But think I may just do what I used to do, NEVER leave my bike! London has to be the worst city for this.

New to this today after a guy told me about the site and said you guys are good at stopping scumbags who steal bikes.
I had my Black Selle seat and Campag Carbon chorus nicked this morning from My De Rosa. I was locked up just by Clapham common tube station in the bike racks.
The arshole must have had a bike tool/ allen key as it was no quick release.
