Description
I saw this vandalized bicycle in London, I think it was in St. James Park. In a perverse way it made me feel better. Showed me that vandalism is not confined to only one city, it can occur anywhere. This picture was taken in May 1998 and later scanned.

That's so sad, but all too typical. "If I can't steal it from you, I'll destroy it so you won't have it either."
Happens everywhere, that's for sure.
Looks like someone got REALLY angry. I like this shot though.
this sure sums up life in the city .excellent capture and composition in what has become typical of todays times mick
Such a common sight!! a document photo of our times.
What a shame! Went you cant leave you bike parked without someone smashing it up. This is happening more and more now.
great statement.
Great find and capture. There is vandalism everywhere, also here.
Too much of it happens like this and worse Sig. I suppose it makes us all feel a little better to hear all comments giving an impression of this problem being universal and not just in our own towns or cities. Good capture.
Very Nice Shot!!!
Universal problem ! as Timtripp said : great statement . Ana
this certainly makes it hard to ride home after work, eh? Slows me down when that happens. LOL Nice capture.
some times it happens, every day a litle more everywhere, nice find and interesting.
lol sad be a very good shot
in New York and many other cities people made the mistake of chaining the wheel only.well the the thiefs would simply remove the wheel and take the bike. I do not understand vandalism and never have or will
Well seen!
I enjoy reading your captions.
This is a classic artistic photo. No posing, No setting up, just a shot that is unusual, different, humorous and "its going to take a few dollars to get this bike rolling again". Its obvious there was some frutration taken out on the bike. Bent wheel, missing seat(who would take that)missing back wheel, ummm. Very good "photo eye"
