I slept on it and realised i am more pissed off at myself for not securing it better earlier. I have left it several times overnight with just disc locks in the past when i couldnt get to my chain and railing part. just got complacent.
Now i am going to have to borrow money to get another one whilst waiting for insurance, having now lost my ncb, my premiums will also go up. Arggghhhh and having to bus to work and more difficult to look around for a bike without something to get to the sellers place/dealer!
Very hacked off.
Been there, done that, worn the T-shirt... Bummer, sorry to hear that.
