Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Which forum are we posting about stolen bikes?

For now this one...until a mod points me in the right direction.

Recently we've had a string of bikes being stolen in our region (Columbus, GA) All high end road bikes or mountain bikes, in broad daylight, one even right in front of the LBS.

Today, sadly, just before the group ride (first of the year) my girlfiends 2012 Trek Madone 5.2 (black on black) with ultegra (also black) was stolen outside her office downtown while she was changing into her gear. She left the back on the back of the rack, secured with a lock (I put it on myself) and came out 10 minutes later and the bike was gone.

If you happen to see one posted in your region in the next few months, inbox me. Thanks.

Also stolen was a friends Cannondale Scalpel.

I'm setting up a sting bike with the spybike system. Hoping over the next week or two somebody nabs it and we can find out where they are going, in the mean time I'd suggest you add one, seems like it's worth the money vs. the pain of losing your bike.


edit: hello old friends, been awhile...been super busy =)
