Guys, a 21 year old biker from Brisbane in Australia has had his Tenere stolen here in Dublin and left only with the clothes he is wearing. He had done 30,000 KM's across Russia and Europe only to have the bike stolen while he was sorting out his hostel. The story is a little like Noah Horak. His bike was taken on tuesday last and nobody from the biking community met up with him untill today when I took him out for coffee. He had posted on biker.ie but all he got there was a few "thats terrible" type comments. He intends to stay on here in Dublin for a while and look for work. Meanwhile its 4'c here and he is cold. Anyone got a warm jacket to lend or give him to start off again ? And in an effort to help him see around Dublin has anyone got a bicycle (any type) that they dont want or need ? Also to help him keep his sanity has anyone got time to meet up with him for a coffee ? His name is Rohan and his Irish mobile number is "zero eight seven 3412869". We all pulled together for Noah so is it possible to do it again ? He is the same age as my son and I'd hate to think of my lad on his own half way around the world after being robbed. :rob

Pictures of the bike etc to follow.
 
Rohan

Just spoke to Rohan and he will be coming to stay with us for a few days til he gets himself back on his feet, problem is he is small clothes size and anyone that knows me will know I ain't small so need some clobber for him if poss?
We are in Kerry at the mo but heading back tomorrow, I will be going into town to pic Rohan up and could collect clothing donations whilst traveling.

Sounds like a nice lad, crap this has happened to him!
 
Clothing sizes of Rohan if at all poss please folks

He is 5'11" , 32" waist and takes a size small in a shirt. I am sure he would appreciate anything at the moment!
Thanks
 
Unfortunately, it's a while since I've been a 32" waist. :(
Not sure I've anything for him.
If he decides to travel outside Dublin, Kev, give him my number. I can put him up down here and if there's anything that fits, great. :thumb2

Good man Jim, I'll tell Rohan. Thank you for that! :thumb

One of mide's friends husbands is the same size as him so we have 2 pairs of jeans and a few sweatshirts already! Spoke to 5eyes and he has a job for him so things might just be looking up for the poor fella

Donkey's rule! :D
 
Cheers john, will tell Rohan tomorrow. Coat would probably be very handy! Good man yer self!
 
That's 3 RTW bikers i know of that went around the world unmolested only to have their bike and gear stolen in Dublin.
Luke, if you PM me your Paypal i will send you €100 to pass on to him.
 
Id be happy to help in anyway i can.
His size is the same as Mine , I have whatever he needs .
When he gets his bike back , he can use my garage to Fix whatever is broken.

Fair Play Luke , I tip my Cap in your direction.
When the Chips are Down an all tha..

Are you opening your paypal Ac ?
 
Good to see that the Celtic reputation for hospitality is still well founded. Good on you guys..... :thumb2
 
Hey all, This is Noah, I'm the guy who got his 690 stolen last summer. If it wasn't for the Irish hospitality and the love from biker community, I would not have continued my trip. So thanks again. Please show this guy the same love you showed me.

Is there a paypal address or something I can send some support?
 
Kev, been at the NEC all day so only catching up. What time are you passing tomorrow ? I'm sure there's stuff here that'd fit him, I'll find out in the morning when the lads are up. Probably have a few bits of bike gear too when he gets to that stage.

Who's looking after the donations ? Post details of where we can send a few quid :thumb2
 
That's disgusting poor lad :mad: we have nothing here that would fit him but will certainly throw a few quid into the pot :thumb

Nice one Kev and Luke :clap


:aidan
 
Sounds like he's the same size as me.
Got a pair of combat style jeans, a shirt and a Fleece top here if any use. :nenau
Maybe more - PM /ph me if we can help.

Thanks Mandy, Noah horak has or is putting something up on his round the world page to try and raise funds for Rohan. As soon as we collect rohan we'll sort him out a PayPal account if he doesn't have one and post details!
There has been a great response to this so far with clothing donations, cash offers, job offer and an extremely generous offer of a Gs 1000 for Rohan's use whilst he's here!
That's what it's all about, great bunch of people!
 
Rohan has a PayPal account for anyone that would like to help him out it is - [email protected]
Thank you all for your generosity!!!
 
I have a new pair of size 11 DM's... If they fit, he's welcome to them... Only thing is... They're cherry red:D
Too big for me
 
Cheers Dave, will tell him! On way in to collect him now so will let you know soon
