Ya, but when he posted it it was so much more official. When you did I just thought it was another sexual assault lure.

Agh, door prize sucks. I almost got door prized 3 times in my last ten minute ride. The bike lane is not a damn parking lot! Feel better soon.

It was a cable lock with a fat heavy masterlock on it. Im guessing the big-boy bolt cutters took it, or they dremelled the ****er. Either way, I was grinding in an elevator in the lobby for fifteen minutes, looked up and wham, no bike outside anymore. Prolly a dude with a van, cuz I booked it out the door and saw nothing. Plus, average crackhead cant ride fixed, must have been someone who knows whats up.

BTW:

DUPS, NOOO!!! I hope you took the ****ers door right off =). Glad to hear your in one piece though man, got paid today, wanna hit up a few beers sometime soon?

P.S.

Im putting up a reward for her safe return, two two-fours of your beer of choice, or the cash equivalent.

Sweet Galileo! If you're interested, I've got a nice set of carbon cranks (needs square taper BB) that have "Pinarello" on them in blue lettering that you can have. No chainrings for them though.
