Yeah, except no one would EVER steal an autistic thirty-something year old coked up on.. but then again.. who in their right mind would steal a varsity with a suicide hub.. D'oh, you're right!

Maybe it wasn't stolen?
Maybe it was just in someone's way, & because it wasn't locked up, they just moved it???
Go out & look for it!!!

If I were an ass hole, I would steal it. Please show the nice folks what I'm going on about....
Thread's derailed anyway... (or is it dutreted?)

I have been thinking of ways to destroy somebody or the bike, if need be, when I find it or them. I have been thinking of just carrying a wrench with me and unscrewing the wheel nuts so that the person who stole it loses control and faceplants in the middle or the road. I have also been thinking about just carrying my extra u-lock with me so that when I do find it I can lock it up and get it later, which seems like the most sensible option. I am confident that I will find it because I live in a small town and if someone stole it to use I will eventually see it. What else could you recommend to really stick it to the other person riding my bike.

The bicycle had never been locked up for five years, under the well known and proven fact that luck is forever.
When asked what he would do when or if he found the bike tainted bike, silent1 said, "I have been thinking of ways to destroy somebody or the bike, if need be. It really depends on how much of the theif's a*s juice is on the seat. I have been thinking of just carrying a wrench with me and unscrewing the wheel nuts so that the person who stole it loses control and faceplants in the middle or the road. Problem solved."
