So I'm pretty stinkin mad right now. After work on Friday I go to ride my bike home and its not there! "Where the freak is it?!" I thought. Turns out my bike was stolen and the thief cut the lock. I went back inside the ITB where I work on BYU campus and talked to someone who had access to the cameras. We were able to pinpoint the time of the stealing to 2:00 pm and saw the bad guys take two bikes! They looked to be around 16-18 years old.
I filed a police report with hope that since my bike was registered, the police would be able to do something. The next day I see my bike on KSL! The thief swapped out my super nice seat and put some other crappy thing on it. I immediately knew it was my bike because of the handlebar stem. The stem I put on my bike was from a Jamis road bike and cannot even be purchased. It comes stock on Jamis bikes and I could distinguish it in the pictures taken of my stolen bike!
I emailed the thief to set up an appointment to check out the bike (pretending to want to buy it). I called some friends up to also put bids in on the bike to force him to reply to at least one of us. He replied back saying he wanted to meet up Sunday.
Well, it's Sunday now and I have been waiting for this idiot's return email to tell me where we can meet. I called the cops as well and they are ready and willing to accompany me to get my bike back from this guy. I hope he responds!
