Have you ever had a bike nicked" I have, so I know from experience that it?s one of the worst feelings in the world. The feeling in the pit of your stomach when you discover your bike?s missing is 10 times worse than the biggest kick in the ?nads. I wouldn?t wish it on my worst enemy. If you ask me, motorcycle theft is one of the most heinous crimes in the world. Unfortunately though, neither the constabulary nor the judiciary seem to hold the same view. But if I was in charge of things, there would be a few changes. And I?d start with the sentences dished out to the scumbags that pinch our bikes. Some maybe think capital punishment for bike thieves is too severe. I don?t, and here?s why?

For 90 percent of motorcycle owners and riders, their bike isn?t just the thing they use to get from A to B. They?re a lot more than that. For most of us, our bikes mean everything to us. We love them just as much as we love our kids, and often a lot more than our wives. They are an extension of our personalities. A tangible embodiment of our souls. So when some little scrotum from the shitty side of town decides he?s having it away, it?s not just a minor inconvenience for us; we?re going to take it personally.
Usually, when you?re bikes gone, it?s gone. You?re not going to see it again. You can either take it on the chin or call the insurance company up (if you have a policy to cover its theft). But every now and then the police manage to do their job and get your bike back...
