Bike stolen Goose Green


B&G

Recommended Posts

My Dad had his bike stolen today from outside the IYOUALL shop on East Dulwich Road. That Scandie homewares one next to 999 beauty near to Anetos.


Nicked by a white kid, about 12-14 years old. He rode off on it and his two mates, black kids, got on the bus.


It?s my Dad?s only form of transport and he doesn?t have the funds to replace it


The bike is VERY distinctive - if you see it crashed anywhere or offered for sale anywhere please, please, please get in touch.

No need for such sarc. think the question should have been "was it locked?"

Good luck in getting it back. Perhaps it was dumped locally - we put posters up on lamp posts when some yooffs nicked our daughters, it was found in a hedge and the police picked it up, but we were informed by someone who saw the poster.


It's a lovely bike but I doubt worth much second hand - you can try the criminal's market place Gum Tree - I can use this description as my stolen bike was sold on this, being put up the evening it was nicked. Barstools. But that was taken by a 'professional' rather than an opportunist.


Did you get the security details etched by the police (whatever the scheme is called) - all mine are, but apologies if that is shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted.


I share you pain. It is so personal. The only people I hate more than the thieves is the rrrrssss who buy stolen bikes most likely knowing they are knock off.

    • Long time cyclist and driver here, (but I cycle much more than drive). Sadly I'm not sure we're ever going to get over this.  The pro- and anti- camps are so polarised that compromise and acceptance seems impossible; it feels like someone has to be the winner. I had a break in Berlin recently and the attitude seems so different.  There were loads and loads of cyclists (most non-electric as far as I could tell) but everyone adhered to the rules.  Motorists and cyclists always stopped at red lights.  Pedestrians only crossed at crossings and only when the green man light was lit.  There were cycle lanes, sometimes borrowed from the road, sometimes from the pavements but always used.  What's needed is a cultural shift in mindset.
    • The last person to have run The Paxton completely ruined it. From the moment I saw the large tacky looking plastic banner on the outside I knew what its fate would be.
    • A Jay appeared in our garden yesterday evening and is still there now. Quite large and healthy looking but seems (to my completely ignorant self) to be missing his/her tail feathers which is perhaps why they’re hanging about. I’ve left out some seeds and water but not sure what else can be done? Any keen ornithologists or wildlife carers nearby? 
    • Hen123, despite the stats, it still doesn't mean cyclists are safe to ignore the rules.  There's an old joke when a 95 year old granny with poor eyesight was asked if she had been involved in any accidents during her driving career, and she replies none but I've seen plenty in my rear view mirror  I have seen so many near misses (both as a bus user, driver and pedestrian) where a cyclist has done something unexpected or illegal and fear the day that its not a near miss.
