A couple of points:

1/ are we certain these are decimal numbers?

Scanning the string there are NO nines, thus it could be in base 9, so
if the +4 rotation is correct we would have to do modulo arithmetic in
the correct base.  This could be base 9 or 10.

2/ Should it be read left to right?

working on the principal of pairs we get
82 26 20 14 35 14 31 02 04 22 57 32 24 14 31 04 17 18 10 18 54 62 25

or arrange it vertically:

82262014351431020422573
22414310417181018546225

which gives us

82 22 24 61 24 03 11 40 34 51 17 41 38 11 00 21 08 45 24 26 52 72 35

All of which goes to show that in trying to crack this don't assume
anything.

May be its written sdrawkcab?
