Another one seemingly abandoned at London City Airport. It hasn’t moved for more than six months. It belongs to a Polish woman who works (worked?) in the airport. Maybe she’s buggered off home?
A mate posted up a picture of one bike not long ago that's been seemingly abandoned on the IOM, British registered, all laden up with full soft luggage, not moved for many months, put it on a Facebook bikers group or 2 and got a right slagging from some folks for being nosey and putting a picture of it on! His primary concern was what had happened to the rider :(
Sounds familiar, I think I saw it on the Ride500yards group (or whatever it's called).

It's now national news that I can't ride, not that'd surprise anyone who knows me.

Oh and I found the real reason I'd not been able to trust the front recently. My pre-loads had unwound themselves unevenly. Wound them back in and suddenly it feels right again.
