thanks
Deanna,
That is an awesome story!! Wow! I've been watching Craigslist. I posted that I was looking for a small women's road bike with a triple just to see if I get any nibbles. It's about a 48 cm, sloping top tube. Here's a photo. Isn't she pretty?

Hi Cindy!
Cindy, I don't know who's more upset, me or Peggy.

Craigslist
Trek420,
You're right! I didn't post about a stolen bike. I just said I was looking for a small road bike with a triple. I had one guy just now contact me about an old Cannondale for sale.
I almost did post the stolen bike alert, but thought better of it for exactly the reason you said.
We're heading to Sac over the weekend to hit the flea markets and maybe hit Laney College and Ashby Bart flea markets as well.
Keep your fingers crossed for us!!
Thanks!!

I believe I saw this bike.

I stumbled across this forum because I was/am planning a cross-country bike ride for next year and wanted to find some women to talk to about it. So, it is just a fluke that I found this forum a few days after seeing this bike.

If you saw it Saturday, then the owner was riding it.
It was stolen on Sunday.

That just sucks! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you. I agree with cindysue, why can't people just work for what they want instead of stealing others peoples stuff.

Thanks Musinglife!
We love riding in Winters, but we weren't riding on Sat. We were riding on Sunday on the American River Trail, and it was stolen after that ride.
Thanks though and yes keep on checking out the bikes! We do all do it, but now I have even more of a reason to!
I'm printing up some posters with all the specs and emailing them to folks to bring into shops, especially ones up that way.
