Thieving scumbags broke into Greg Evans' workshop in the early hours of Saturday 14th March & stole 3 bikes including his WEC KTM. The theft was particularly infuriating as Greg had been working hard all week to prepare his race bike for the first round of the WEC in Portugal. His plan to leave the next day were put on hold but unlike the scumbags, Greg is an indefatigable competitor with good friends. While the Police investigated the theft, Wayne Mounter stepped in & lent Greg a Six Day Special. Greg had to work against the clock in Wayne's workshop to fit his own shocks, exhaust & other mods. I am sure we all wish Greg & the Police the best of luck. Details Update - 3 enduro bikes were stolen 10 miles away in Bedwas on Monday night/ Tuesday morn between 2am and 5am - Details
