Warning - More bikes stolen - Wollongong
« on: July 16, 2013, 03:27:10 pm »
Guys,

Anyone living down here in the Wollongong / Illawarra areas  - Be very careful !!!

My mate just had his RMZ450 and CR500 and all riding gear/wheels/parts etc ripped off last night.

He obviously had been scoped out.

The back of the shed that adjoined a reserve was taken apart, wheel marks etc indicate they were loaded onto a ute.

Now, after my recent incident - he had them Chained/locked. The RMZ even had its rear wheel off!! Looks like they came prepared.

There is a racket going on down here big time. So whatever security you have may need looking at. He did go riding the weekend before which means his bikes would have been seen on his trailer. This is similar to myself, who took the kids riding the weekend before mine were taken.

You have been warned. Just locking them up in your shed is not enough.
Regards,

If riding your bike is a common thread between the bastards stealing your stuff, where did you go riding?
I'd like to avoid it.

Thats the issue.
Down here at least, Basically if you have bikes they will be on your property at some stage trying to steal them.

A D from down here messaged me today stating the situation of bikes going missing is worse than ever at the moment.
