WARNING - ABBEY THEATRE - bike thieves about -

SubLuminal

Just posting this as a warning to anyone that parks their bike around the abbey theatre -

Tonight some ****er cut through the spiral-cable lock my girlfriend was using to secure her wheels - luckily for us her bike was also sporting a kryptonite u-lock so they were unable to nick the bike, but I was thinking, why would you cut the chain knowing you couldn't remove the bike?

Maybe because they're coming back 2moz with a car jack to pop the U-locks?

I'm not sure, its more likely they were just too stupid to notice the U lock but thought I'd post up a warning just incase anyone regularly parks their bike there. I've noticed a pretty nice looking racer there (can't remember what type) before.

Good luck!

I'd say it might be to cause it to be abandoned alright. I've read that they kick in wheels to immobilise a bike and come back for it later.

But if its a Kypto then I doubt they'd bother...
