A man is offering a £100 reward for the return of his bike which was allegedly stolen out of his garage.

David Godden-Duske, of Wear Bay Road in Folkestone, had his Boardman Team Carbon Cycle taken when no one was home.

CCTV footage has caught the person walking up the alleyway between the two houses, before hopping over a low wall and accessing the garage.

It happened at 6.55pm last Wednesday.

The footage shows cars going up and down the road - and also one car that is parked up with its hazards on, which is not thought to be linked to the incident.

But this does not deter the person from attempting to gain entry to the garage.

The bike worth £1,299 has a yellow bar tape, a white specialised saddle and the tyres have a yellow side wall.

It also has a sticker with Mr Godden-Duske’s name on it, although this could easily be removed.

Mr Godden-Duske, a member of the Folkestone Velo Club, said that he has spread the word in a bid to trace the bike.

He said: “I am trying to make it too hot to handle so then people will steer clear of it.

“I have watched the CCTV back several hundreds of times and the person comes into frame at 30 seconds.

“It does make you wonder if we were being watched to see if anyone was home.”

Mr Godden-Duske also allegedly had his car stolen off his driveway some three years ago, but police managed to track it down and he got it back.

He added: “I am disappointed, we thought we were going to be safe moving to Wear Bay, we have been here 10 years.”

The 46-year-old has shared a clip of the footage across several social media pages on Facebook and Twitter.

A police spokesman said: “There are currently no identified suspects.

“If anyone has information about the theft they are asked to contact Kent Police on 101 or Kent Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 quoting crime reference ZY/38925/16.”
