Tracker Trick

ALL BIKERS BE ALERT THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE UK AND MORE THAN LIKELY HERE IN IRELAND. Copied from another page
Attention all bikers. Yesterday a friend parked his bike at Rye East Sussex he went for a walk when he returned to his bike he noticed something taped under the bike. It was a small tracker. He took the tracker to his local police station in Eastbourne. The police said its a gang from Lithuania who find high valued bikes put trackers on them to find out where they are parked up at night. They steal the bike strip it and put it in a container then send it to Lithuania. If you leave your bike in a public area check it for a tracker when you come back. If you have saddlebags check them
This has also been done in Dublin and Belfast city Manchester Liverpool !

Nasty fuckers.

One thing though; if he noticed something taped to the underside of his bike whilst walking back towards it, he must either be incredibly short or the tracker must be unfeasibly large.

High valued bikes? Blackbirds are safe then.

My GS A most certainly isn't then!

If I saw something taped under my bike whilst it was parked in Rye I'd be standing well back.

Rye is a lovely place, can't imagine anything like this happening there.

Personally I would put the tracker in the post to myself a few times and see what happened.....

Its old news & not that common now that a few of these scum have tracked a bike & gone to nick it only to find a reception committee waiting

If I found one of those I'd be relocating it onto the nearest plod wagon.

I can imagine it happening there easily enough. When the sun is out on weekends and bank holidays, there’s a lot of bikes there. Same sort of logic as burglars don’t tend to go robbing the homes of poor people. They’d have to be clever and reasonably lucky not to get caught though.
