“You people amaze me, telling the owners of the bikes what to do without having a clue of what security they had.
You seem to be making the owner seem like the one responsible and not the thieving gits who nicked them.”

“I doubt anyone would spend all that time removing shed panels unless they knew there was something other than old tins of paint inside. I'd be looking at my neighbours.”

“The offenders spent time removing wooden panels and nobody heard anything? Strange. Hope they were insured.”

“And the moral of this story,don't keep anything worth a lot of money in your low security shed or if you absolutely have to,fit a ground anchor to chain it to,personally If i had a bikes worth that much I'd keep them under my bed.”
