Did you say you had a D-lock on the back wheel? if so, how did he get through that? Was it not attached to the frame/wheel/post properly?

[mangle32]

No, no D lock on the back wheel. Just the front wheel. My own stupidity. His opportunism.

[lynxlea]

fuck London police

[mangle32]

Hmmm. For all their faults, I'm not sure this one rests at their door. I was more annoyed with the thief.

[mangle32]

You are of course entirely right, it was stupid. Pity this poor fool, me.

I didn't even watch the video. I just came here to tell you that eventuates isn't a word. But I like it and I'm sorry your bike got stolen. That's lame.

the police are not excited about setting up a sting with same scenario in our city... earn points for their precinct. - prob busy fighting terrorists.

[shinobi2119]

Yeah, it was stupid to just lock the D-lock to the front wheel; everyone tells you to attach it to the frame and the wheel, even I know that. Just live and learn I guess. How much was the bike worth?

[CzarThePlezer]

the owner is right about being stupid, Your whole day was only meant for your bike to be stolen it was your destiny. I love when bad things happen to stupid people, hopefully they learn from their mistakes.

If you do a bit of engineering make some armour for wireless cctv and put it on the handlebar then get it hooked up to your mobile man. Hey a folding bike might be easier. Good luck bro. Peace and Love.

Anyone who walks past a rafty looking guy with bike wheels rolling all over the sidewalk really needs to intervene. Ask the dude what he's doing. Take a cell phone picture if it looks suspicious. Also, we've got to convert to Shariah law for bike thieves. Like to seem them try hacking a U-lock with one hand and a stump. Sorry, about your bike, by the way.
