    A robbery is much more frightening than a burglary.
    When I read the title of the post I was concerned for his life and limb.
    But a burglary, while still upsetting is not the same Unless heirloom or photos were stolen, most (not all) of those items can be replaced.

    I just hope he gets a better security system.

    Truly, truly disturbing. Must have taken the thieves a while to empty out the house.

    I don't know that I'd ever feel safe in that home again. The burglars are still out there and even if they didn't know before, they now know they robbed a professional cyclist with $$. Often, they come back for more.

    I would imagine his wife is a bit freaked out. I wouldn't want to stay there alone when he's over in Europe.

    Smart, you would think he might at least steal some plates so they didn't figure out immediately it was the stolen car?!

    Yeah, what's up with that!?! Cars get stolen all the time. But few get the national (and international?) news coverage like this case. The descriptions and license numbers of Dave's two cars have been reported everywhere!!

    Well thieves don't have a rep for being smart, I guess that is why?
