    a few weeks ago, someone stole my bike while I was up in ottawa :(  I was up there looking for jobs, and I bought that new one to ride around on.

    but when I came home for a week, someone stole it!! even when I had it locked up. I even took the seat off it, so no one would steal the seat. but they must have cut the lock or something.

    stupid thieves!!

    I have no use for the seat now, so I stuck it on ebay

    the blue one was the first bike someone stole from me, that was up in ottawa

    the other one was here in peterborough, they stole it, along with my girlfriends bike. all three were locked up too.

    You should hide some plastic explosives with a remote control detonator inside the tubing of your next bike.

    Someone stole my bike a few weeks ago also. I think they may be related.

    Canadians must be hard up for bikes. Around here, no one would bother stealing a Huffy, even if it was unlocked.

    A few years ago, my Trek Multitrack 900got stolen a few years ago and before that, my Nakamura moutain bike got stolen as well. No thanks to shitty locks.

    I now have a Kona Kilauea hardtail MTB and it rarely leaves my sight. When I absolutely have to lock it, I use two locks on it.

    Kryptonite's warrenty will cover the cost of your bike if the lock is defeated and your bike is stolen when properly secured. You jsut have to register the lock. I suggest that you might look into that with your next bike.


    Hook- Damn, I always thought that my bike was safer cause few other people used the Trek Multitracks. Fortunately I still have my 750.

    Thanks for your address. When you get your new bike I'll be sure to drop by and steal it.

    Well, that ebay listing has all the makings of a viral. Here's hoping it goes ridiculously high as people send it around!

    Sorry to hear that, man. :(  I keep mine in the basement at all times. Even though I rarely ride it anymore...

    last year someone stole both my kids' bikes. I really had no choice but to buy them new ones. But I waited a couple weeks before I did - I told them - that's what happens when you forget to lock them. I made them use part of their allowance so they could feel the effect of it.
    Now they bring them in, AND lock them together. tough lesson learned for them, they have not left them unattended or unlocked since.

    Some fuckin' dickholes broke into my gfs apt once and stole a bunch of cash, some panties (pervs) and most of my dvds. Cockknockers had the gall to go through and actually pick and choose. They left behind Titanic and all the ATHF sets.

    You better believe Scarface was gone...
