Not my bike, one of the shop's.
A scrote wandered out pushing a £2,000 bike and (unsurprisingly) never
returned. Busy shop, understaffed[1], a colleague unlocks a bike and
wheels it off the display to show to a customer. Moves on to another bike
a few metres away without locking it back up and the scrote strolls into
action.
This is bad enough in a normal business, but the chain is owned by about 60
workers[2] so it's a bit like nicking just over £30 from every single one
of them. New! Improved! security measures are now in place to stop his
friends from doing the same, and matches and kindling[3] have been
distributed to staff.
The New! Improved! measures are working - two customers on test rides were
within seconds of being chased down after a couple of colleagues forgot to
wave them off from the front door.
[1] recruiting now if you're interested...
[2] the rest in the business not having worked full time for a year.
[3] What happened to the bullets? Bike thieves don't get the luxury.
