THIEVING OFF MOTOR-CYCLES.

(To the Editor.)

gi r _Certainly “Triumph Rider” has a very unenviable record for having things stolen off his motor-cycle, but' w h v °he still entertains the idea of going to Stratford on a Saturday night is beyond me. At one time, when we were allowed to park our motor-cycles m Broadway, one never heard of anything beimr stolen, but as soon as the parking place was shifted one hears of things being stolen every Saturday night. I myself had tools and battery stolen the first night I parked my bike in the motor-cycle stand, and that was enough for me. Although it does not eclipse “Triumph Rider’s” record it was sufficient for me. Never again do I go to Stratford o n a Saturday night, as I find aoing to another town not much extra expense, if one takes into consideration the value of the things stolen off the machine when left in “Thieves’ El Dorado” at Stratford.—l am, etc., “ANOTHER .MOTOR-CYCLIST.”
