trike found: please read.

[4cylinders]

hey, too late now, half the country and most of canada knows now.
most states have abandoned vehicle laws. not to late to make a report, even after the event.

[redskinman]

Why has no one asked"what the heck were you doing out in the middle of this field owned by the sugar beets company anyway?"

[fenderbender713]

I was going down the road and I saw the trike. So I decided to go check it out.

[1984 honda 200s]

growing dope? ohh you saw a bright yeller trike stuck in the middle of a field. ok sounds good.

[bkm]

Why oh why do some of you guys think it is ok to trespass on private property to get this bike unstuck for someone? Was there a guy waving you down for help? NO. Is there a sign that says "FREE TRIKE IF YOU CAN GET IT OUT". No. Then leave it alone. Didn't your parents ever teach you that if it doesn't belong to you to keep your grubby mitts off of it. Why is this so hard to understand.

[Dirtcrasher]

^ I agree, IDK why you touched it........ It isn't yours and hadn't been there for 10 years nor on your property.

Good trike Samaritan??

[1984 honda 200s]

man he helped out who ever ownes it. i hope i dont get my 200s stuck bad enough to leave it for the night and one of you lads that dont want to pull her out come along...that would reuin my day to see my bike still stuck out there while other tracks going AROUND it. he got it unstuck didnt steal it.

[fenderbender713]

it wasnt in a bush, it was out in the open.

[Howdy]

finders keepers if it looks like its been there more then 2 weeks they obviously dont care to get it cause i know when i leave my bike in the bush as soon as im home i call my buddy to tow it out, either they dont care for it cause its eff'd up or its stolen

If you were to take it and it ends up being stolen then YOU can be arrested for recieving stolen property. And I would HOPE the rightfull legal owners would press for charges.

I'd leave there for a couple days and go back... if it's still there, then I'd claim it.

If it's not on YOUR land then how can you claim it? Don't you mean this:

well lets see tractors nope i wouldnt touch, gator wtf is that? argo? wouldnt touch that, 3 wheeler left in a feild for too long MINE

You show your from cornwall, well when you get busted for stealing and get to jail you will probably get cornholed.

Stealing is stealing and admitting to the fact that you would do it is reason enough for us to remove your forum abilities. Currently under review

i would still do the same as you fenderbender buddy LOL, pull it out of the mud and leave it, keep checking up on it..... some one has to look in the back yard or shed and see a yellow 125 missing someday! or remember where thay last left it haha

[daniel_250r]

i would report it to the local police i highly doubt the actual owner would abandon it. either way its not gonna end up in your hands legally, your choice lol

That is sig worthy right there.

[Howdy]

In that situation I would have left it alone....not touched it.....period

picture this:

you are a police officer on routine patrol when you spot a guy in the middle of an open field pushing a trike around. You stop and ask if the guy needs assistance and/or WHY he`s in the middle of the field pushing a mystery trike with the owner not present or known while the "trike pusher" explains that he doesn`t know who it belongs to, that he found it just sitting there, and that he was "just helping hide it from other thieves" by pushing it back to the woods. Then lets say the police officer runs the numbers and finds out the trike is stolen.....guess who suspect NUMERO UNO is? Yup....the guy trying to do a good deed....I wouldn`t touch it. Or try this shoe on for size: you are pushing it to "safety" when the OWNER shows up....what do you think his first thought would be? And he packs a gun?

Now if a fella gets stuck and has to leave his trike behind, he realizes the threat of theivery but chooses to leave it there anyway and therefore since it rightfully belongs to him, he has that right...best thing to do is not touch it and call the police if you think you may have spotted a stolen trike and want to help in the recovery....but still don`t touch it.....JMO

Been in a similar situation. Call the lawn owner ask, If he knows who's it is, great. If he has no clue, then someone was trespassing on his property. Ask him if you can remove the trike, Most likely he'll let you. He doesn't want to spend time doing it. Bring it to your house, call the the local police department. tell them you found it, Not where or your name. Leave your number. If some calls regarding it, they will contact you. If its not the beet company's then its abandon property. The police will impound, then if not claimed it will most likely got to auction. If it turns up stolen, you can return it.

I agree with both these replies. Call the landowner first, then call the police 2nd. You could possibly be charged with trespassing as it is.

Wow. Heard about situations like this before. But in my town, literally EVERYONE knows EVERYONE ELSE so we see a ride stuck, we say, "Oh, thats -----'s ride, we better give him a holler and see if he needs help!" That keeps a lot of people out of a lot of trouble like this! LOL I'd just let it go and give a holler to the fuzz, and then forget it. That's about all you can do.
