3 of my colleagues have just had their bikes stolen from Charnock Richard services on the M6. They were on the way to ride the HT500. The two bikes pictured are unique @<span class="link-complex-target">Islabikes</span> If you see them please get in touch.
Keep 'em peeled.

That is just rubbish! Bad enough having your bike nicked but nicked on the way to an event that you probably trained 100s if hours for.
There really are some shit people in this world.
That's shite. Bump.
Unbelievable.
The boys have just picked up 3 bikes from us so they can carry on their trip. 2 of the bikes that were stolen were custom frames built by the guys at IslaBikes. They were a bit shell-shocked but in surprisingly good spirits.
They lost a lot of the kit that was on the bikes too, we had some bikepacking bags for them but they could do with some more stuff. If anyone has spare bags they could offer as a loan, they are in Edinburgh tonight/tomorrow and could pick up.
I'm can facilitate the return of stuff when they get back.
