@kev glad you are okay for now, stay safe!

@kev what a truly awful experience Kev. Hard to believe that these sort of things can happen. Glad you are ok though.

@kev When I read that, I briefly thought, ‘Oh no, I hope nothing’s happened to him,’ but then you wrote that you’re fine. That’s good to know; hopefully they’ll catch those idiots. Take care.

@kev geez. I think you handled that very well. Glad you’re okay.

@kev That's terrifying, so glad you're okay (and quick thinking, too!)

@kev Oof, I'm glad for your quick thinking and ability to escape the situation! Hopefully these folks will be caught. Glad you're okay...

@kev Glad you were quick on your feet and outsmarted them. All my vehicles have a GPS transmitter on them. I guess the 2 wheeled vehicles need one too.

@kev Damn! 👿 So glad you're OK!

@kev holy s***, that's insane. At least you know they definitely don't know where you live! But also they might stay on the lookout in that area for a while on the presumption it's your usual route, so maybe hold off from taking it back out a while?

Not that you should have to, but safety first and all that.

Also maybe get a tracker fitted and if it does happen again, let them take it. Better to keep your life than the bike and between a tracker and insurance you'd get it back anyway.

@kev WTF 👀

@kev Dang man so sorry to hear this happened to you. Glad you are safe and well though. I love your description of "took off like the absolutely clappers". 😆

@kev Glad you're OK. That's crazy!

@kev
Nice getaway. I'm guessing that there would have been a fourth person tailing these clowns in a van as once they've got the bike they'll want to get it out of sight ASAP. Hopefully the police are looking for that as well. Unless they prefer the easy option of knicking you for speeding and running a red light 😉

@kev The trio will be in jail soon.
