Sorry Brad. I didn't realize the bike was yours. I'll return it tomorrow for ya.

No really though. That sucks. Hope you find the son of a bitch that did it so you can place his head in your spokes and go for a long ride. You had a pretty nice bike too didn't ya?

Jason, ya, it was my mountain bike, but still nice. Worth about a grand.

sorry to hear that dude, i could feel your pain since mine was stolen a couple years ago.

if i ever found out the guy who stole my bike.....i would chain him to my bike while riding downhill at the mountain.

We need a U.S. style justice system with elected judges, stiff sentences, and "three strikes and you're out" laws.

The scum who stole your bike probably have been arrested and charged dozens of times and let go without any significant prison sentence.

this stolen bike thing makes me think of a funny story from when I was a kid. I had my bike stolen from school and my parents thought I ditched it hoping for a new bike and sure enough a couple months later I see some kid riding my bike so I chase him for about three blocks and I finally catch him. His story is his dad bought it for him. I knew it was my bank thanks to the snazzy spray paintjob I had given it so I go with this kid to his house and it turns out he bought it from a police auction of stolen bikes! Burn for me

I suspect inthis case, some guy sat inthe get-away van while the kids working for him grabbed the bikes. They're probably all on the ferry by now heading to market.
If I ever see it and catch it, I'll certainly have a talk with the fellow.

I think I read that Syria castrates convicted rapists.. Not sure why I just thought of that, but it makes you think what can be done with bike thieves..

Well, according to Moslem law, if you steal something & get caught, they cut off your hand. In Singapore, they hang drug smugglers. I think that would be a good deterrent. I've had a 2 almost new mountain bikes stolen back in my University days & now I never leave my bike anywhere unless its locked up inside at home or locked on my bike rack on the CR-V. In an emergency, I'll lock the frame & take my front wheel with me. I HATE bike thieves!!!! Brad, if you find the guy, I'll "talk" to him with you.

My friend & I once caught a car thief trying to steal his car & the officer who answered our call told us that we would have been better off not calling the cops & taking out back & .... (you get the picture)
