iRob Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Posting this for a mate: [b]HI there This bike of mine was stolen last week Thursday, from my flat in Greenpoint. It’s a Silver Marin, with a rock shock recon shock, it was fitted with head and tail lights and slick tyres. ( You don’t get Marin in SA, so it should and will stand out) .... I will reward any information that leads to the recovery of the stolen goods. Many Thanks[/b]
timM Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Sorry to hear about this! Will keep an eye open - perhaps give the second hand bike stores a heads-up so they can look out for it too!
Thumper Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 F^%$ unlucky bud.Take a look around any pawn shops you have in the area.
MTB_Roadie Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 go try Neils Wheels, apparently they have a lot of...mixed part bikes...
LeTurbo Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 F^%$ unlucky bud.Take a look around any pawn shops you have in the area. ... and Neil's Wheels at Checkers Centre in Main Road, Pluimstead. *** one, iRob, hope you get her back.
iRob Posted May 17, 2011 Author Posted May 17, 2011 It is a mates of mine's bike - the second one he's had stolen in 4months. NOT cool. The first one was insured and has since been replaced but this ws his commuter bike (and the bike he did his 2009 Epic training on) so it holds a heck of a lot of memories. He has emailed all the cash crusaders in the area and they are supposed to keep the stuff for a week before selling and he is in contact with the police as well. Hopefully this post will alert smaller second hand bike shops. Marins in SA are rare - so if you see this one please try and see if you can find out anything on where it came from or where it is going. A reward is offered.
Shift Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Man, that sux! Hope they catch the bugger! Maybe you should change your nic to "igotRobbed" Seriously though...I'll keep an eye open in the Gardens area too.
