The Lengths Bike Thieves Will Go To

Yep a pro job and you are correct Steve nothing is really safe. We call insurance companies, but they do have their uses ...

 

I don't have respect for them, they are all scum bags. These twats just have a bit more about them, but they are still scum bags

 

I agree they are professionals and very skilled at what they do, but they are still scum bags. And they impact all of us in our pockets by their efforts

 

I can see where @Dozers Dad is coming from but these scrotes, all scrotes, go on to further education if they are of this mentality. What starts off as petty crime either develops by them talking to their "friends" or they get caught and the tax payers funds their development to the next level at a cost of about £30k/yr

 

I guess I just cannot have any respect for these people, whether they are nicking off us (joe public) or a business. Ask anybody on the forum that have had their bikes nicked what they think about these kind of people. Having said all that I do respect your point of view mate

 

Neat job and obviously an effective bit of prior research..... if only these people could put the same effort into society in a positive wayl!

Certainly not a sledgehammer smash and grab whilst fortunately missing the cctv and sensors

 

Went to a gunshop the other week and I know the guy to talk to. Turns out theyd been broken into via the roof. The only camera strangely not working was on that corner of the building and by "fishing" out an air rifle rather than climbing in they didnt activate the sensors.
Typical Police response, copper turns up and owner says look over there as it looks like they came by quad?

Coppers response was a beauty " I arent walking down that field, I'll get my shoes plastered!"

FFS

 

Sledgehammer.

 

Are you saying they cut the sides with the saw? I see no sharp edges to the hole. If they did use a saw why are the blocks smashed into small pieces, surely a couple of vertical cuts and one on top would leave one large piece.

 

Found these German Jack Boots for ya Jez
They’ll go with your soon to be acquired ditch pump

 

Let's just hope that whoever did it their balls turn square and rot from the corners inwards.

 

How can you be sure none of us was there

 

So a paedophile is a a scum bag but you respect someone who runs a paedophile ring? I don’t quite go along with your logic but as you said not everyone will agree with you

 

Not sure about the disc cutter @Dozers Dad as the edges are too ragged although could have been used to initiate a weak spot in the centre of the hole.
Outer picture top left corner appears to show a number of hammer rash from possibly sledgehammer misses.
What surprises me if a sledgehammer was the tool of choice is the lack of cracks radiating from the hole. Was it a brickie type guy with a lump hammer and bolster chisel after the initial opening?
Also it looks to me for the hole to have been driven from both sides, see the small bits of rubble evidence inside and out.

 

One last thought before bed, have they actually taken a bike cos the dust on the floor doesn't look like it has been disturbed and the hole isn't tall enough to wheel a bike out, it would have to have been laid over and dragged partly on its side?

 

Rogue hammer marks top left of hole in first pic, aimed a bit too high ?

 

Yes @littleade the dpc is a nice convenient structural weakspot to start things from.

 

Feckin hell everyone’s trying to be Miss Marple tonight

 

Bet ya on that one @Yorkshireman , post 29
