Subject: Punky & Lew in Cusco, Peru
Hi everyone: I have just experienced the first attempt at theft from
Critter. The bike was parked inside the hostal we are staying at. Three
employees caught a young man trying to make off with the tank bag and the
tank panniers. He had cut the connecting straps, bungee cords and the bungee
net. The thief was pounced on by all three of the employees and beaten into
unconsciousness, before they called the police. I had to go make a report to
the police today and be delayed a day of travel. I think the cut straps and
bungee net can be repaired. The hostal manager is helping to get the repairs
accomplished. I have an extra bungee net, thanks to Ricardo in Quito. The
police say the thief is poor, unable to pay restitution and will be
imprisoned for a minumum of four years. A high price to pay. I saw the
beaten thief in the police station and told him I hoped he will enjoy his
upcoming vacation. We will visit The Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu Saturday
and Sunday and leave for Puno, Lake Titicaca and Bolivia Monday. Later.
