    This one? http://seattlebikeblog.com/ I'd contact Recycled cycles. Folks bring in bike to sell used. They seem good about checking if this is really the sellers bike. But if the person is not familiar with bikes they could at least try to bring it in and they should know to watch for it. If we go by Counterbalance tomorrow I'll ask them to watch out.

    This is terrible Mimi. Have you posted in Craigslist? I see that type of announcement (stolen bike) on occasion.

    It's a good idea to post that to Craigs but when my bike was stolen (much less valuable than Don's) I thought "if I post an alert the thief will avoid Craigs and sell elsewhere; Flea market, Pawn Shop ... I'll never get the chance to spot the ad."

    With everyone watching I'd WANT them to post to Craigs. Maybe someone here will see it.

    But maybe I'm just sneaky that way.

    Also do we have the great and good folks of bikejournal on the trail too?

    I don't even know what to say. That REALLY sucks. A pox on the person who would do such a thing
