    Had bike stolen last night from the shed in the back garden, saw the thief cycling it away as I arrived home, of course didn't realise it was my bike at the time. End of Terrace house so they lifted it over the wall. Hadn't locked it and of course it wasn't insured. So annoyed, sorry to rant.
    Anyway need a bike for work the one I bought in September was €250 (fairly standard bike, not sure of make) but this time really want to get one as cheap as possible under €100 if I can. My cycle every day is only about 30 mins on cycle lanes.
    Rang Kevin Street Garda Station but they don't know when the next bicycle auction will be. Tried Buy and Sell but there's not much up there from what I could see, lot of bikes in Nothern Ireland. If anyone knows where sells decent second hand bikes either city centre or southside I'd really appreciate it.
    Thanks a million

    CB,

    I might have a bike that will suit, It could be a week until I know for sure, cos I'm currently in the process of buying an Orbea road bike on eBay.

    I bought a second had racer last October, so I'll be selling that. Its a specialized Allez frame (the oldest part), ultegra/105 throughout with ritchey wheels and hubs. I'd be looking for €300 and no less...but as I said its dependant upon me getting a new set of wheels! I'll know early next week.

    I'll send you pics if you're interested,

    P.
