    Send the photo to Stolen Bikes Ireland on facebook in case it shows up as stolen there. Or post it here and I'll mail it to them.

    Even on the "Stolen Bikes Ireland" page on Facebook I'm shocked at the amount of bikes being posted where they haven't even reported it to the Gardai. It's like its an alien concept to them.

    If you've ever had a bike stolen, you'll realise why facebook is a priority over the gardai. Although, yes, I'd still report it to the gardai obviously

    17% of Dublin Gardai are allowed to pursue a vehicle. So hopefully they'll get one of them on it.

    They look like they're walking, not running, in the picture you posted. Why are you sure it's stolen?

    They were running at first. I couldn't get a photo then. I actually tho8ght they were trying to get it started (push start) but they kept running- and had no helmets....
    Then when they sensed they were "out of danger" they began to walk. I tried to get a photo of their faces but the car I was in was going too fast.

    The building they are walking along has excellent cameras and if we actually had a good to even poor police force it wouldn't take them long to find their faces on them.

    To much getting away with this.

    If you've a face on CCTV doesn't guarantee they'll be caught. Alot seem to think CCTV solves it there and then.

    People/businesses who own these cameras, are (unnecessarily) aftraid of GDPR, and won't give footage over to the guards, or will deliberately delete it to avoid getting involved.

    They'll only want to deal with CCTV where it
    concerns their own property and sod everyone else who happens to need it.

    That's not true, if the cops request it correctly there is no issue.

    These buildings are owned by huge corporations so no need to worry.

    CCTV there is amazing believe me.

    They will most likely be known if they have robbed it.

    I work right there myself and have seen the sh!ts out my office window size up bikes on a regular basis. As far as I know that PCX was parked at the entrance to the CHQ bulding along with some other bikes.

    Easier to take for them ? Others likely to be bikes with immobilizers?

    Id say so. There are some higher value machines with immobilizers right there and with questionable security. No use to your average joy rider though.

    If they can't be started the bike will be burned out or focked into Spencer Dock. The little pricks don't give a bollox.
