Stolen Bike Registry - do this when your bike gets stolen

"With all the stolen bike posts lately (and no one thinking "I wonder if there's something under Useful Links for this."), I think it's well past time to make a sticky about the Stolen Bike Registry"

 - Tank-Ridin' Ryan

 

Well said Ryan.

Done and done.

 

And sticky too.

Hello,

Thank you for the quick response.  Did a police report yesterday.  We will see where this takes us.

In the meantime, I went around Chicago looking for the bike. Stopped by Swap-O-Rama today.  Did not see my bike.  However one vendor (from a van) had mighty decent looking bikes. (Yeah, not sketchy...). Not saying he stole the bikes, but you get my point.

Anyone missing a:

-Felt B16

-Cannondale Caad3

-Specialized Secteur

Trying stopping by Swap-O-Rama.....  The vendor was in the north east corner of the lot. 

Hopefully someone spots my bike :/

-Ryan

Just heard about "Offer Up". It's an App for selling items...including bicycles. Add that to the list above.
