This bike has been dumped where I live in Dublin 2 for the last few days, I think it may have been stolen but there is a back wheel lock on it so the thieves may have just dumped it after getting bored carrying it.
Its a nice bike worth a bit of money, perhaps one of your readers knows the owners. I called the guards but they have not come for it. There are a few distintive things on it the owner should know.
Anyone?

A mini-doc on the burgeoning phenomenon of fashion blogging by GARAGE Magazine sez:
When we set out to make this short, our intention simply was to observe the phenomenon of fashion bloggers and street style stars. As we started to review the footage, two salient trends became apparent: fashion editors frustrated by the ensuing commotion outside of shows, and the rise of “peacocking” street style stars as a result of the proliferation of blogs. This film examines these themes from both perspectives.
