John Caudwell, Britain's seventh richest man,
had his £5,000 bike stolen while at an
Olympic torchbearers' reception at City Hall on Friday
night.

No catty comments please - having a high profile guy like
this cycling is for the good.
"Caudwell is a keen cyclist and regularly rides the 160 miles from the
Phones 4U head office to London for business meetings."

£5K for a bike? The words "sense," "money," "more," and "than" spring
to mind....

Errm, I think the bike in question was one of those that has an engine
rather than the type you pedal, either that or if he really does cycle 160
miles on a regular basis we should get him in the Olympic team rather than
attending Olympic receptions...

Take it all back, it was a pedal bike - blimey...
