Both rattling, totally desperate. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19089#post-290367 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 10:29:55 +0000 Frenchy 290367@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Worth checking home insurance policy, you might well be covered there. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19089#post-290364 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 10:11:23 +0000 bill 290364@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Oh, that's rubbish. Sorry to hear that!</p> <p>My colleague got his bike stolen over summer when he moved the bike from the flat to the stairwell with plans to start cycling more. It also had a D lock. The weird thing was that the lock was gone as well and it was all tided up with no sign of the bike or lock ever being there in the first place. </p> <p>Last week another bike got stolen from their stairwell. This time it was a bike that locked to the outside of the bannister. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19089#post-290351 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 01:55:43 +0000 unhurt 290351@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>What a miserable, rotten thing. Fingers crossed, and yes, keep checking the second hand sales. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19089#post-290336 Wed, 05 Sep 2018 15:55:14 +0000 neddie 290336@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>There is hope.</p> <p>CrabbitCopy got her bike back: <a href="https://twitter.com/crabbitcopy/status/1033727800488943617" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/crabbitcopy/status/1033727800488943617</a></p> <p>Keeping checking Gumtree / Craigslist etc. to see if your bike has been offered for sale. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19089#post-290333 Wed, 05 Sep 2018 14:11:50 +0000 shinsukato 290333@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Sorry for the triple-post, not sure how that happened. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19090#post-290331 Wed, 05 Sep 2018 14:09:25 +0000 shinsukato 290331@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>My pride and joy was stolen from my stairwell on Monday afternoon. It was locked to the bannister.</p> <p>I'm utterly heartbroken as I'm about to start a university degree and can't afford a replacement. Currently trying to find the proof of purchase on the D Lock because I think it was guaranteed, but I bought it years ago.</p> <p>I know it's generally hopeless, but if anyone sees it up for sale or ditched on the side of a road somewhere I'd hugely appreciate a heads up.
