Bike 'not' Nicked

Hi all - for those who remember me, I'm still around but not riding much, family illness is back
For those who don't I'm riding even less now. My beloved, black Storm has been nicked from a shuttered basement garage in Glasgow
Reg is W964XFL, it's black, pretty standard and has Fuel exhausts. Any help in notifying sites etc that I'm not a member of (all other than this!) would be greatly appreciated.
Here she is
thanks guys - hope you're all well
Andy

You've got to hand it to Police Scotland. Came round within the hour and found it within the next hour and a half
Nicked early hours of Monday morning, oddly a squire padlock etc was picked, they pushed it a couple of streets away and were disturbed so just left it. A resident had reported a bike lent against their wall, but the PCs who came round said they'd drive around as most criminals suffer in the brain department and deposit looted stuff quite often - especially if it is heavy and needs pushing
Anyways, I'm chuffed to bits.
Back in a year or so

good to hear you are still around Andy .... although family illness and bike nicked are not the best of alternatives.
if you need a place to let off steam, we are always here!

Hi Andy, hope things improve in your neck of the woods and you get out on the bike to blow off some steam.

Thanks Kev - lovely to hear you playing nice, still with the blue rinse set I'm assuming? It's god's country up here - the couple of days I've been out have been epic and make me so glad I have a black storm (still)

I'm sorry to hear about your family illness being back, but pleased you got your bike back, and in a very short time,
Chris.
