    I work in container transport, one of our sub contractors trucks was targeted by thieves in Milton Keynes last night, they piped gas into the cab to render the driver unconscious then broke into the container and stole 210 Trek fairly high end mountain bikes.

    Fortunately the driver is OK, just a bit of a headache as a result of whatever they used to gas him, major hassle for me sorting out the shipping line and insurance company, because of these thieving scumbags.

    Just putting it out there on the off chance any forum members get wind of some cheap mountain bikes up for sale.

    The word I would use, as a retired HGV driver, to describe these scallywags is contained within the word Scunthorpe, a town not too far, but far enough away, from Chateau Goolie.
    Not twigged it yet?:confused:
    Let's just say that without that particular adjective, Scunthorpe would be called Shorpe.:eek:

    I’m still scratching my head thinking what does Jez want a mountain bike for,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I know you were getting one for Dilli to help him loose weight and to tone up his body ;)

    I think that romantic weekend he had recently has put ideas into his head :grinning:

    They must be slack at trek as they had this many bikes stolen in 2012 as well outside their warehouse from a lorry , no mention of gas that time , sounds a bit suspicious to me a bit like being gassed in a motorhome ,
