The tale of the bicycle thieves

Just because some oke with a k@k attitude didn't thank you or fulfil his promise doesn't mean that you have to paint everyone with the same brush. So you got the one out of a hundred. Tough, be glad you did the right thing. Next time it may be you.

EDF maybe you should read my post again as it seems you do not understand it nor do you read it properly.

 

I said we as people.

I said people get blase.

 

Not a single mention that implies ALL people. If you feel like giving me grief make sure you get your facts correct. Before you answer and make a statement again go and read my post first.

Sometime ago I was offered a bike to buy. Saw the bike and realised it was stolen. Made contact with the owner and he got the police involved. Bike was recovered and a few other stolen goods was found. Other stolen bikes from shops was recovered as well. Up until today I'm still waiting for a promise that was made by the owner of the bike. Not even a thank you. Yes it was a bike stolen from a shop.

 

So yeah people get blase about bikes being stolen cause of they ask on the hub they get either ripped a new one or told they are being stupid. That's why we do not care anymore. Regularly see a bike that does not belong and I rather say nothing.

 

Even seen it here on the hub under the classifieds and just left it. Not my bike=Not my problem.

 

Leave it to those bleeding hearts on the hub to sort it out.

Overlord if I've misunderstood your post my sincere apologies.

Having re-read it a few times I guess you're referring to other peoples attitudes and not your own which isn't how I first understood it so sorry, my mistake. :oops:

It takes a man to admit a mistake and to offer an apology.

 

Your apology is noted and I accept it.

Patch... things are moving. I cannot disclose too much at this stage, for fear of compromising the situation and potential court case. 

 

I'll let you know more when I can, and there will be an added surprise at the end for the Hubbers.
