Merry Xmas, Your Bike Has Been Stolen
That makes three times I’ve had my bike stolen since living in Milwaukee. The second time for this particular bike. It was stolen a little over a year ago, but the police were able to find it because I have the serial number. Hopefully they can find it again. I’ve hardly ridden it since I got it back. In fact, it still has the tag from the police department on it. I guess I had it coming as I didn’t have it locked up. But, that didn’t do me any good last time as they just snipped the lock anyway. I guess I figured lightning wouldn’t strike three times. I also figured my condo was a little more secure. If anyone sees someone riding a black and yellow Gary Fisher mountain bike around, let me know, it might be mine.

Well Matt, I’ve been blessed to have the opportunity to hang out with you at a basketball game, toss a flying disc, and even kick back a beer, and found you to be a pretty bright guy.
That said, I’m shocked that you’d buy the Mercedes-Benz of mountain bikes, a Gary Fisher, and not lock it sometimes!! C’mon man, that bike would get stolen even in River Hills by some rich kids just for kicks, much less in a more modest neighborhood. Also, unless you were using a Kryptonite U-shaped lock, I have no sympathy for you. Protect your investment dude!!
See you at winter Ultimate.
