Look in last months Ride - there was an article on bike theft and the measures that security firms used to delay the thieves - a mobile phone text alert device was featured - I'll get the info tonight and post tomorrow but from memory it was about 275 pounds

I'm sure it's a good idea, but what do you do if you get a txt to say your bikes being knicked, especially if you're not within shotgun range :?:

That's IF the text gets to you within a few moments. Sometimes, I've had them turn up four+ hours later!

Get a rottweiller and chain it to the S. And make it a female so it don't pee on your wheels : :wink:
