Just a quick note for anyone around the area, if you see any Trek EX's about let me or the police know. Fox forks and a fair few upgrades. More details to follow. Cheers.

Cheers Rusty

It's the same bikes - Simon's a mate 🙂

Thanks for the thread.

We've had the shed re-secured by the insurance company. We'll be heading out to get the shed roof properly secured. Pretty annoyed, as I'd put big bolts through the doors, had two padlocks, and superglued all the screw heads so they couldn't be unscrewed.

Plus had an alarm.

All this didn't matter, cause that was securing the door from entry!

Apparently it was a targeted attack, another three homes in the area were targeted too. So it looks like it's someone with local knowledge who's helped out.

I hope someone runs them down while riding my bikes. Scum.

Sorry to hear about the bikes will keep an eye out.

Out of curiosity how did they actually get through the roof? Cutting, levered off etc. Just thinking if I need to pimp the roof on mine, as like you I've only concentrated on securing the door.
