More info A tourist had his dream holiday to Scotland ruined after being targeted by heartless thieves . Pawel Hnat, from Poznan, Poland, paid £3,300 to tour the country with his wife and seven friends, however their trip was cut short after his bike was stolen in Edinburgh . Pawel had driven to Scotland on his Yamaha XT1200Z Super Tenere 2020 and had planned to explore on his bike whilst here.
The family were left gutted when he discovered thieves had stolen his bike from outside of the Acer Lodge guesthouse on Queensferry Road at around 9.30pm on July 20. In video footage shared with Edinburgh Live , four riders, on what appear to be electric bikes, can be seen inspecting the bikes that are parked outside.
Two of the thieves manage to roll the Yamaha out of the drive way as the other two remain on look out as they are sat on their bike. After manoeuvring the bike out of the driveway, the gang of thieves take their time and casually roll the bike down Queensferry Road.
