DISASTER

Woke up this morning and found the backdoor had been broken into, the keys for the garage and bike locks taken and my Scratch and Session taken....can't believe it .....also, had my wallet, phone and various other bits taken

Police are on the case

I've still got my hard tail so am still up for Triscombe but I need to borrow a rear brake (mine's with Avid under warranty) ....anyone help me out?

U.N.B leviable - seriously feel for you ... its getting out of hand

The rear brake on the nic threads through he frame so its needs a rebleed to remove - I have a hayes brake on the cannondale im sure I can hijak. Feel free to pop over and check it out.

Would absolutely understand if you didn't fancy Triscombe mate!

What a bastard, people like that need stringing up by the balls.

I dread the thought of this happening and hearing about it happening to others is horrible.

I have a mono mini on the xc bike if you need a last resort, it might not give enough braking power though!

thnx - I'm happy going hard tail - should be a laugh!

On a more positive note - just had a call from Loughton CID - they've arrested two people and found some of the stolen items

No word on the bikes yet - but fingers crossed .....
