hey drew spoke to you at insane yesterday. I sent out the word to the local crew so all eyes are on the job. Where abouts exactly was it taken from.
Perhaps the scum bags have stashed it near by to come back for. We'll have a look

oh hey man, i was the kid he was with,

It was the bottom of the Gun club Track to the right of the drive way. If you go down the trail through the gate towards where all the holes are, go through the gap in the bushes and it was under the big bush on your left...

What gate?

 

[mty10@]

ummm, the gun club drive way goes straight of the end of the road, and the "gate" is kinda just to the right...

Oh, and it was in the bushes on your right, not left!

Hey guys, thanks heaps for all the views, comments and wishes. Thanks to the fellas from Insane for keeping their eyes peeled too and thanks Michael for the pics.

Like Evan said evObda2, it was your old frame. I'd just had it running sweet and was rippin up at the gun club track. The thing was loving it so much, such an awesome frame.

Just to confirm the location it was nicked from: If you drive up to the gate to the rifle range, there's a dirt track that goes off to the right and a single track that goes into the shrubbery right next to the gate (on its right). If you wander in there there's some holes in the ground where people have dug dirt for jumps and berms. It was hidden in one of the large clumps of briars/blackberries. Totally out of site for anyone unless you walk from the DH track side right into the briars. Who ever flogged it was either ridiculously lucky as they walked through there (we never saw another person) or they were watching us from somewhere. BASTARDS!

Hey TheCat, is there a cash converters or something like that out there?

Thanks again everyone whose keeping lookout.

Edit I'll offer a reward if someone finds it/ returns it.
