Friend's Stolen Bilenky

A friend had her Bilenky stolen and she'd really like it back. This bike was in lieu of an engagement ring and it's her prize possession. If any of you see this, please let me know.

Thanks...she's a very nice person and I know the bike means a lot to her. I can't imagine how distraught I'd be if someone took my Marnati.

How'd she get it back? (Beautiful bike, btw. And the color is my Peter Mooney. Not common but cool!)

I'm glad the bike was recovered! Hopefully everything is all right with it!

Best wishes!

Yes! I read this and thought, too bad, that bike is gone for good.

That is a pretty amazing girl that will take a bike instead of a engagement ring, she deserved to get it back.
