CP 24 just ran a lovely little POS story about someone's precious doggy getting hit in High Park by a cyclist. So now we're dog-haters, too. Great.
On topic: I don't think the dude was on a ss/fg.

Breaking news. Does anyone here know of anyone that has had an IRO Mark V stolen in the last little while? 56 cm, Miche rear hub. I have many more details and the serial # so if anyone knows of anyone pass the info along.
