I hope you get it hack. I know the Feeling.

Classic? Commuter maybe, but a classic?
Not to disparage the impact of the theft though. Sorry to hear about it. It’d be interesting and educational for other riders (myself included) how it was stolen. Lock cut? Off the porch?

That’s how the owner described it. Sorry, I should have put it in quotes.

Wow. That looks like the same bike on CL! Hope the police were called to help look into it. Hard to imagine it’s just a coincidence, as the bike on CL is almost an exact match to the one stolen in WS.

I e-mailed the stolen bike’s owner to flag him to the comment in case he wasn’t checking back – that’s about the extent of what we can do, without firsthand knowledge/involvement.

Sorry, comment time is over.
