A silver ladies ridgeback speed in case anyone happens across it. Anyway, I am gutted and can't claim on insurance as, even though it was in a secure courtyard, it wasn't secured to an "immovable object". </p> <p>I have borrowed an old rusty bike with 6 gears, which will do me at the moment, but I don't particularly enjoy riding it. I'm tempted just to go out a buy a new one, but think that might be a bit rash. Has anyone been in a similar position? How likely is it it will be recovered? I have given police the frame number etc and am constantly refreshing gumtree but not holding out much hope :-( </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12092#post-140647 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 13:17:20 +0000 kaputnik 140647@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Seen on facebook and Twitter;</p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/trailscotland/posts/688892957821950" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/trailscotland/posts/688892957821950</a></p> <p>Some [reprobates] have broken into the bike lockup at Saltersgate School in Dalkeith. They have had four Pashley Robin trikes stolen. Three red, one blue. Used to allow disabled kids the simple pleasure of riding a bike. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11768#post-135243 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 13:21:18 +0000 eddievick 135243@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hi all, it seems like a very common occurrence at the moment, but I've had three bikes stolen over the weekend. One was an ancient Land Rover bike (Brown) worth about £50 The second a Carerra Vulcan Ladies spec mountain bike. but they also took my pride and joy, a 2011 Scott Scale 20 Mountain Bike. </p> <p>Taken from Liberton area, locked in a secure shed. It's quite a distinctive bike there won't be many of them about, and it also has my name (Ed Vickers) on the top tube (which I expect will be ground off or stickered over.) Please keep an eye open for me, although I'm not holding out much hope. </p> <p><a href="http://www.edvickers.com/bike/scott.jpg">Here's the Scott</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.edvickers.com/bike/bike.pdf">And the Flyer I've sent to most Edinburgh Bike Shops</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.edvickers.com/bike/carerra.jpg">And a picture of the Carrera</a></p> <p>Thanks for looking!<br /> Ed </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2876#post-30650 Fri, 06 May 2011 07:33:45 +0000 tammytroot 30650@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hi Guys,<br /> My son's bike was stolen last night from the common stairwell where it was locked to the railings. He has had it for less than 2 months.<br /> If anyone spots a new looking Claud Butler explorer 100 in black with bar ends (gents large frame, can you post on here or pm me?</p> <p>Thanks, </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=481#post-3501 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 12:55:26 +0000 spytfyre 3501@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2764/4419075411_a6f780357d_b.jpg"><br /> See how badly sprayed it is... they even sprayed on the red light...<br /> this was on Gloucster St which is pretty steep and dangerous but I haven't heard of a cyclist being killed there for this to be a "ghost" bike which makes me think it must be stolen...<br /> I haven't been back past that way to see it again as I tend to take a longer route home now </p>
