They didn't take the motorcycles, but they did steal our bikes. I had a nice Specialized Allez, and my fiance had an older Trek Mountain bike. They used bolt cutters to get passed the combination lock. We'll get about $200 back from the homeowners insurance, but that's only 20% of the cost. I have since gotten a new clasp and stronger lock for the door, and ordered a motion sensor alarm. Asshats!

A specialised allez, the insurance will be lucky to cover the cost of the seat, post, stem and cassette, thieving b@stards, and the scrote who nicked the bikes isn't much better <_<

Yeah, I really loved that bike. I even had an aftermarket racing seat that was stolen along with it. It was a 24 speed, which I didn't want when I bought it, but they gave me a deal I couldn't pass up. That bike was my transportation to and from work when I lived in Chicago...had quite a few memories attached to that bike. Won't be able to afford a new one anytime soon either :(

Thanks Drewps, if only. They'll never catch them or get my bike back, sad state of affairs that people can get away with such things.

Tell me about it, granted we pay little enough per month for the insurance.

Never mind about the insurance, my fiance forgot to put me on the policy so I don't get any money back. Fantastic.
