Bike Theft

[maelithil.livejournal.com]

As a warning, bike thieves are afoot.

Someone, I'm assuming two people, broke into our screened porch on Day St last night between 1am and 8am and stole two mountain bikes. Considering they moved my new hybrid out of the way to get to the two old, scratched up mountain bikes it was leaning against, I'm betting the thieves were either idiots or very savvy, as my bike was the only one that was registered.

Police was notified and unsurprised.

Figured I should tell you guys to keep a vigilant eye out for assholes.

Yeah, I should add as an aside that in spite of all that stuff I said about how to keep the bike from getting stolen, I *always* leave my lights on my bike, and when it's wet I always leave the fender, and I've never had any of those get stolen, ever (though I, too, have broken several). In fact I am probably more likely to permanently misplace the light if I take it off the bike than I am to have it stolen from *on* the bike.
