That really sucks. Hope you had good insurance.

Here's what I'd be doing:

1) Phoning as many local bike stores (including TO) to keep an eye out for anyone trying to sell a used one.
2) Keep checking ebay and kijiji

Good luck with your search. I'll keep an eye out in the Cambridge area paper for anyone trying to sell one.

how can a bike be stolen off your driveway? did you build a pedestal for your bike and just leave it smack dab in the middle of the driveway? it is probably your fault anyways, you should have left the bicycle IN your garage, not outside on the middle of your driveway unlocked and ready to be picked up by any passerby.

ive heard it happen with a lot cheaper bikes, its not that hard if you forget something in the house and have to run in to grab it. One of my friends got three bikes out, his and his two kids' bikes. Went inside to get them and when he came out they were all gone.

a cheap bike becomes an expensive bike if you have to buy another one

If it is this guy's fault, I don't think he needs you to point it out.
