A number of rental pushbikes from the Birchwood Hirebikes station in Lincoln are out of use after vandals destroyed docks and cycles.
At least four of the bikes, which are part of the city-wide Hirebikes scheme run by Hourbike with Access Lincoln, were ripped from their docks over the weekend on Birchwood Avenue.
Damage was caused to the bike frames, lights and reflectors.
The scheme was launched in August 2013 as part of the multi-million pound Access LN6 programme (now Access Lincoln).
It’s now expanded to include 19 locations in the city.
Lincolnshire Police were alerted to the incident of criminal damage at around 7.10am on July 18 and are appealing for anyone with information to call 101, quoting incident number 87.
