The little boy told his mother that a tall, muscular man who was riding
a bike approached him while he was outside the shop and took her purple
and silver Raleigh mountain bike.

The thief then rode off with the bike alongside his own down a cycle
track towards Spring Bank West.

Did he have a silly mustache & smell of alcohol?

"tall and muscular"....

Sorry. The bloke I was thinking of was short & scrawny.

Dave - Cyclists VOR. "Many people barely recognise the bicycle as a
legitimate mode of transport; it is either a toy for children or a
vehicle fit only for the poor and/or strange," Dave Horton, of Lancaster
University, wrote in an interim assessment of the Understanding Walking
and Cycling study. "For them, cycling is a bit embarrassing, they fail
to see its purpose, and have no interest in integrating it into their
lives, certainly on a regular basis."
