Bike thieves will be punished by force
2 out of 3 ain't bad.
This EBAY listing was a stolen MDMA ride - recovered.
On Friday, after a flurry of messages through the MDMA, Steve's beautiful Concorde road bike, stolen from 140 William at 11am was recovered 2 hours later by The Pushi.
After a short chase, the thief 'down in the drops', Pushi apprehended and recovered the stolen ride.
The number of unlocked/ freelocked bikes still amazes.

So easy, that a reader of this site wrote to us with this plea
