A commercial premises I call on occasionally has had a Royal Mail
Pashley cycle leant up against a wall within its yard for approx 3 to
4 months now.
The manager of the place has notified them a couple of times about it
and also mentions it to his Postman/Woman.
Nobody has taken any notice and the thing is now looking quite sad
with a rusty chain and a disintegrating saddle.
Next week it goes in the skip.
According to the chap this is the 2nd one to have been abandoned there
so maybe a local postie has need for some transport home and then
dumps them.
Said manager said I could take it away. I was tempted as it would be
useful for nipping up the shop with its plastic carrier.The fact that
it appears to have no street cred to the extent that nobody has
already ridden it off would save worrying about theft.
The yard while private is publicly accessible.
However these things are a bit distinctive and I have no wish to get a
criminal record by being found on Royal Mails bike even if they do not
seem to want it.
Seems a waste though,and a lot of stamps to pay for one.
