Bike Thieves

[sundial]

Trek, some builders and real estate agents are hiring 24 hr security for the homes. It's a shame what is happening these days.

As for the bike thieves--what goes around comes around. I'm so glad you didn't have anything stolen and that you weren't harmed. Bikes can be replaced.

Thx ladies for these responses. It's nice to have folks who understand. Getting my bikes stolen as a kid was awful. We lived the furtherest point from the school, no school bus (just city and a far away stop), and mom couldn't drive... thus bike gone = transportation hardship.

That is also an interesting point about motorist following cyclists home to case out the bike stealing. I wondered that last night. With my new night gear, I'm very easy to spot going and coming.

I'm the only true roadie that zips out of the sub (besides my mtb-ing). I stand out in the day too. My vehicle has my hitch mount rack on it all the time. It's too much for me to load on and off. Just stays for the summer. I think those things spell out "someone who loves bikes" and usually people with passions about things = the gear $ investment grows. Also the amount of $ in gear the thief is after to steal.

The comment about the bikes being replaceable is a good one... the thought of someone taking me off my bike to get it crossed my mind when it was dark.

I'm "named" for my old Trek. Sure I have new and some might say better bikes now. But you never forget the feeling of going downstairs to get your bike for a ride and

Because of the "420" in the model (which for some is slang for a certain drug) I'm sure some dope fiend rode that sweet bike into the dirt. I love the Mondonico I got to replace it but dang I miss that bike.

There is a special place in he]] for bike crooks.
