As a child, Gone In 60 Seconds was one of my favorite movies. I'm not sure how well the film has aged, but I know with certainty that stealing cars and motorcycles is an unbelievably shitty thing to do, especially having grown up and had my own stolen.
So, you can imagine the level of contempt I feel for a group of thieves who stole more than £90k (US $122,013 at the time of writing) worth of Aprilia motorcycles in the UK.
A group of four thieves apparently broke into Dearden Motorcycles at Hardley Industrial Estate, in Hardley, Hampshire, England, at around 1:40 am earlier in August. It took them just 20 minutes for the gang to force open the front door and smash a reinforced glass pane in the process. What the group was doing was clearly thuggish, but it also seems a lot more like organized crime than just a few random lads who suddenly decided to steal some bikes.
