    Just spotted this via @KineticsGlasgow:

    which is a message from 'Söderberg':

    (I don't know if this example is a bakfiets or Bakfiets, or if there is a more correct name for a great big cargo trike)

    I'd assumed this was about Glasgow, but it seems to actually be The new Peter's yard pizza making venture.

    Can only assume the trike will turn up somewhere?

  3. It's a Christiania trike, and only week or so old I think (PY were on FB about it). Apparently stolen right in front of their eyes, so the thief must have thighs like tree trunks to have sprinted away from people who were presumably giving chase!

    Was spotted (100% sure) Dougie @Edinburgh Bike Fitting last night around 10pm.

    He was driving on Duddingston Road west toward Duddingston. The trike was with group of kids. Heading towards Bingham. He didn't know about it hence the delay

    Going to tweet it maybe....

    Has been found. Tracked down in last two hours. Hadn't gone far. Heard that it was advertised on Gumtree.

    I guess that is a cause for hope that stolen bikes can be recovered: bike thieves are often thick as mince. Did they not think that a Christiana trike may be recognisable?

    Glad to hear it's been found.

    Good news. Hopefully will lock it now? Maybe using the one built into bike or a nice d-lock?

    Being fixed tonight in bike service. Will have to take their door off to get it out once finished.
