but they have your intials on the right like the hardtail did? i think it would be hard to build up a frame like that and sell it. That stinks though, hope something good comes of it.

Absolute suckatration, BFG!
Getting your HT stolen the first time was bad enough. Now this.
I hope the perps get strung up and eviscerated.

If you have homeowners or renters insurance, turn in a claim. Even if it was a pile of bike at the time, it is personal property. It will be subject to your deductible, but you can get restart funds coming your way. I hope your have some insurance. If they say, It aint covered, ask the magic phrase, Show me in the policy where it isn't covered. You wouldn't believe how that phrase opens the checkbook.
HOPEFULLY, you got some insurance. If not, sorry, sound like something you might consider.

Ran a 5k earlier. Wow, I really suck at pacing myself. Did it in a pathetic 24ish mins (according to my start and finish time; we'll see what the chip thingy says), started off way too slow seeing as I literally sprinted the last half mile.
