Over the weekend rangers at the Nevis Range, host of the DH World Cups and next year’s World Championship in Fort William, had a bike stolen while dealing with a potentially serious injury. After attending to the injured rider it became clear due to the injury and high winds a vehicle would need to be used for extrication. One of the patrol officers had to leave his bike at the scene to watch the rider while in the vehicle, on the way back to where the bike was missing. Nevis Range shared the news on social media along with an image of the motorcycle they believe has been stolen. I know times are tough, but stealing a bike while helping someone who’s injured – really? Please help!!! Yesterday our patrols attended a possible serious injury on the cycle tracks. Due to the nature of the injury (and high winds which meant we couldn’t use the rescue deck) we had to use our vehicle for the extraction. One of the patrol officers had to leave the bike by the track so we could track the victim in the vehicle. The bike left from the track is now gone….The bike is a Trek Session 9 (R3) and the frame number is WTU046G0101T — Nevis RangeAnyone with information about this can contact Nevis Range on (+44) 01397 705825 or the police on 101.
