First Post / Test / Stolen Carrera Valour Sept2009




First post of this blog is dedicated to my Carrera Valour road bike. Stolen a year ago on some sunny Saturday while I was enjoying some live music at Buffalo Bar. It was locked, along with my mates Giant Terrago to the cycle stands at the Windsor Place / Queen Street junction. Must have been their lucky day – two bikes, one lock ! [ Onguard Doberman 185cm Cable Lock £15-20ish ]
We couldn’t remember if there were other bikes about before, nor could we quite remember noticing a dodgy transit van parked up the street, but there wasn’t anything left, not even the lock ! Reported the crime immediately, and waited to until the CCTV operator confirmed that he was looking the other way.
Off the shelf road bike, no real unique parts. Large Frame. Crappy plastic pedals [ not the standard SPD ones ] Yellow valve caps & Yellow Livestrong band on the stem.      
Anyways, no real hope in finding this by now, but do get in touch if you’d like me to post about your stolen bike.
