A cyclist who travelled 335,500 miles across the world on the same bike only for it to be stolen in the UK is celebrating after it was found. German-born Heinz Stucke bought his bike with distinctive custom-made double handlebars in 1962 to embark on his endless voyage across the globe. It was stolen on Monday as he slept in his tent in Portsmouth just hours after getting off a ferry. It was discovered abandoned on Tuesday in a local park. Mr Stucke, 66, had been given a replacement from Hampshire Police's lost property after officers heard of his plight. more: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/hampshire/4755973.stm

"it has been stolen few different times but I must say the help of the media and police stations .... " "but I woke up this morning and the bike wasn't there ... I can only re-joy now that the news within 48 hours .. was it .. eee .. the bike was found you know ... I realy didn't expect to be found you know ... the bike is not the flashy one, is not the expensive one, the Brook saddle could be taken because is a one of good saddles ....." and then he is talking about pitching a tent etc. he is not talking really clear :-( try this link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/avdb/news_web/audio/9012da6800417b8/nb/09012da680041a1e_16x9_nb.asx

What he does say is: It has been stolen at different other times .... I can only rejoice now that ... within 48 hours ... that the bike had been found. I really expected it to be found because the bike is not a flashy one, it's not an expensive one .... Some people have started writing an entry in wikipedia: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_St%C3%BCcke (written in German). Thanks and best wishes, Petra

Hi Robb (Witam!) where is the joke ? I mean, it is obvious that Heinz Stücke is afraid of getting stuck in a relationship. But fear is something which is rather sad than funny . Anyhow, if you found any other articles about Stücke, I would be happy if you could post the links. Best wishes, Petra

Hi, what I wonder about is: how does Heinz finance himself? You need money to go to all these places? How does he pay his travel expenses? Sure you can live cheaply, but the price of a boat ticket is not negotiable! Bernd

Hi, what I wonder about is: how does Heinz finance himself? You need money to go to all these places? How does he pay his travel expenses? Sure you can live cheaply, but the price of a boat ticket is not negotiable! Bernd Hello Bernd, Heinz Stuecke is a tool and die maker by profession, so maybe this makes it relatively easy for him to get casual labor? This is what I just have found: Stuecke in Wales Nicest quote: One amazing topic arose which was associated with the Internet - Heinz spoke of this as an amazing tool for learning, yet thought that there was just too much information now available online and that people could loose the art of face to face communication through this medium as time goes by. As Heinz was heading to Swansea he could be traveling in Irland now. Petra
