(not me by the way ... lol)

To summarise ...

"Well. It's happened. 7am this morning 8 police barged through my door with a warrant.

I'll be brief because I'm typing from my iPod.

YouTube videos were traced. Cheshire police got involved. Bikes been seized. All riding gear seized. All fairings seized. Gopro. Computer. Monitor. Printer. Memory cards/sticks. Posters of myself on the wall. All siezed.

11 hours in a cell and I had to plead guilty due to the evidence against me.

Bailed until January for dangerous driving. And I might not be getting the bike back.

That's all I can say. See you around."

Then I read the rest of the thread, what a numpty

Deserves everything he's getting really. 99% of those bikers on there are just like the two soap dodger numptys we have at work who are also bikers, always quick to slag off the police for doing their work. Wonder if they'll still have that same attitude if their house got burgled or bike stolen :rolleyes:

Have to say this person does deserve to get popped, but I hope he doesn't do any serious time -- it's just a fucking bike, right? I will say this -- as the guy writes briefly about his saga, he ends with "And I probably won't even get the bike back." Funny that he seems bitter not to be walking away with his (stolen) property. As for shooting video of your crime, it is amazingly dim and arrogant, you're almost begging to get popped. Still, better days, lad!
