Boooo! My bike is stolen Was up in Manchester for the day and off its gone.
Was locked up in the Didsbury (Outside the library about 2:45 Saturday) area for about 10 mins while I nipped into a shop.
I just completed Lands End to John o Groats on it so it has a special place for me. LeJog Blog

If any spots it or bits of it on ebay / gumtree whatever I'd love to get it back and would be happy to give some cash incentives!

Thanks
Rob

Hi rob.

This is unrelated - I haven't seen your bike, but I have a query. I have a tricross sport 2010 that I'm planning on using for touring. I'm looking for an appropriate pannier rack as the bike has unusually wide mounting points at the rear.

Could you tell me what year your tricross is, and if '10 what kind of rack is on it? How did it stand up to touring? did you have a tent etc with you?

Thanks in advance
