Speaking to Edinburgh Live , Ty said: "I came to see my partner at her house in Musselburgh, and took my bike over.
"We went to the shop, came home and sat down - and all of a sudden I heard people outside and then motorbike sounds. I ran downstairs and by the time I got there they were away with it.
