This article (http://bikeportland.org/2007/07/17/thieves-ransack-clean-out-weirs-cyclery-in-st-johns/) tells you what kinds of bikes to be looking for out on the streets. With the owner on vacation and very specific items taken, it sounds like it was well-planned. :mad:

Definitely in the running for Dumb Crook Of The Year. "Hey, let's steal some bikes and sell them in the public plaza 3 blocks from the bike shop and 1 block from the police station."
I just happened to be nearby when the store employees were ferrying the bikes back to the shop... they looked happy... like this :D :D :D
