I know there are riders from all over the world, but if you see these bikes, please let me know.

Our bikes were stolen out of our garage in Minneapolis, MN some time after 10:00 p.m. August 15 and before 7:30 a.m. August 16. We really love the bikes and the models aren’t manufactured anymore.
His is an 2012 Trek FX+ male, and mine is a 2012 Specialized Ruby Road Bike size 44c. The handle bar tape on the Ruby has been changed to a blue to match the bike.
Also, the Ruby has a krypton combination bike lock wrapped on the top tube. I don’t know how hard it would be for thieves to remove it.

I'm sorry this happened.
You might also want to post in your local craigslist and any other local classified ads, and report to the police, etc.

Very best of luck to you!

Locally we post stolen bikes to Facebook. It seems to get shared through the community pretty quickly that way.

a police report has been filed. I've also put it on Facebook and a Minneapolis MN website that lists stolen bikes. I don't want to put it on Craig's list because I don't want to scare someone off from posting there. If they do post it, I want "buy" it with the police.
Thanks for your suggestions.

My bike will be hard to replace. Size 44c is really hard to come by and right now I don't like any of the 2013 or 2014 colors. :-(
