Just seen on FB
Patsy Quick and Desert Rose racing has had 5 bikes nicked overnight from the festival site - parked outside her truck whilst she & the team slept inside
Not good
I thought security would be tighter
Taking a bigger chain now
Sad

Doesn’t bode well for everyone else who has to leave their bike outside their tent.

Re: Bikes nicked overnight from ABR Festival 2019
Decided to leave my XR400 at home now, no ignition and easy to steal - even with a big chain
So just unloaded it out of the Van - will just camp in my Van and ride the demo/try out bikes instead and go to the talks
Funnily enough I woke up from a very vivid dream at 4am . which was about bikes (my bike being nicked) - so I'll take it as a premonition
Still be be good to camp in the Van and have a wander/try bikes and go kayaking

Just heard, our TRF club's Vice Chair has had his eFreeride stolen too
What is going on, where is security??

Scumbags.
Let's hope that 'security' will be on their toes now if anymore scrotes appear

Re: Bikes nicked overnight from ABR Festival 2019
I feel sorry for Alan and the team and all the hard work put in to make this event a success... Security needs kicking and sudely all vehicles should be searched going out to check they are the owners... I hope with all the publicity the tents etc are safe as folks will have valuables along... Bet someone is been given a right royal rollicking..
Have fun and keep the eyes peeled and maybe some zip ties on doors etc...
Plenty of trees to hang them from.
