    D*mn! So sorry, azfiddle. She was a real beauty. That was brazen, and low.

    It's only a thing- not what really matters in life, but the 2016 models are not nearly as pretty. Plain vanilla white or charcoal gray with pink. I might look at other brands, although I know the Ruby was a great fit for me.

    I wonder if Wahine could help you? As I recall, she is a guru at figuring out which bikes will work based on measurements - maybe she could tell you what's similar?

    Sharon....the emotions connected to a theft aren’t fun to go through. I had a bike stolen when I was in college and for a couple of days I had thoughts ranging from wanting to stab the thief in the liver to just hoping they take good care of the bike I spent so much time and savings to build up to be exactly what I wanted/needed. Be thankful you have insurance coverage and can get a new bike soon!!!!! It took me too long a time to save the money to build up a good replacement for my brevet addiction at the time.

    I have a hidden gps/gms tracker on my seven and waterford so if a thief can actually get past the lock that can help in finding them.

    Rebecca--can you tell us a little more about this? Sounds interesting.

    Dear Allstate claims agent:

    Thank you so much for all you did to get my claim settled so quickly, and for explaining to the adjustors that cycling was so important to me so that they agreed to send the full replacement amount up front. I am starting to get excited about a new bike!
