Bike Description
Used bike, some scratches and dings. Deep scratch on the front just below the Dawes badge from D Lock. Rusted chain, elasticated light below seat. Different seat to the original Dawes seat that came with it. The tires are a bit flat as I've not used it in a good long while. Taken sometime this past week.Theft Description
Bike left with another in our back yard. Possibly easy access as had not locked it in place, thought it was well hidden. Noticed it was gone today, may have been stolen at any time in the last week. I have the original Dawes cycle seat also.
Recovery Description
Having been after the police for 2 weeks after my bike was stolen, I investigated online where I found a person who was selling it on the local Facebook Marketplace. After many emails and phone calls to 101 and a LOT of badgering, the police finally delivered my bike back to me yesterday from the seller who claimed he bought it for a tenner from 'someone'. Be careful because there is a spate of bicycle robberies going on in Leicester, sometimes straight out of people's back gardens!
