    Hi everyone,

    I had a bike stolen from South King Street (where the Gaiety Theatre is) in Dublin on Friday. I want to post this to make people extra aware of how brazen bike thieves are.

    The thief was spotted by a store owner cutting the lock with an angle grinder. By her accounts it took about 20 seconds to cut the lock off and cycle off. The lock was a Gold rated ABUS lock and it was around the wheel and frame of the bike.

    It happened at 3.25pm and the street was really busy. The bike was locked up on a row or stands with about 10 other bikes. Beware where you lock your bike and try to keep it in sight of where you are. I was in the St. Stephens Green shopping centre for 20 mins and it was gone when I got back!

    The Gardai were very helpful and came and took a statement. They said they are getting at least 3 reports a day from theft in the City.

    I'm going to post a picture of the bike as well, if you notice it on any ad's online can you let me know so I can call the Gardai. (Raleigh SF 3.0)

    Thanks and be safe
