I liked the line from one of the reports: "The owner of the one-time bike ..."
I'm glad the charges were dropped.

the latest
this just in... athens university is going to pay patrick hanlin (sp?) an amount in between the original price and the price of a new, similar bike. the highest estimates are at 1300 dollars. i wish the cops would have done it instead, but it's still pretty cool, i thought. it was a pretty nice cannondale road bike he had ridden across the u.s. twice upon.

Craigslist had a good series on it a month ago.

CNN had pics of it, but they were taken down.

A few years ago in Spain, ETA, a terrorist group killed a general with a bomb hidden in a bycicle.

I go to OU and I have to tell you that I was really hoping this dude would sue the university. He was there telling them that it was a band, and he was actually on his way back from church to pick up the bike!!!

The band 'This Bike is a Pipe Bomb' actually played in a church here in Minneapolis!
Good times.
Let's not forget the Swedish punk band E.T.A. Abreviation for Epileptic Terror Attack. Their more into worshipin' Skatin' than anything else.

A little out of touch there. Maybe they should try googling the phrase first. We have the same stupid things on the ferry system here. Someone reports they heard someone say something about a bomb, so they stop the ferry and spend two hours going over the ferry looking for something that was never there. We have military ships coming in with two military gunships running along side, what? If a miltary ship can't protect itself in the Puget Sound it shouldn't be going to war.

Perhaps the two smaller ships were the harbormaster *******.

this seems like a great end for a batch of department store bikes. Or "bike like objects."

I wonder what the general consensus would be if authorities had a chance to stop something and didn't?

Nevertheless, after hearing a few seconds of it ... that band is not worth getting arrested for. I wonder if the bike owner was crazy enough to go back asking for his bike? How else would anyone know?
When bumper stickers for the band "This SUV is a car-bomb" start appearing on the back of vehicles, will authorities be as hasty in their assumptions?

Anyone else worried that he may be charged later? For what? Liking a band?
