Nooo!! Damn Matt, that blows. I remember you getting it and how important it was to you. Good luck with the search and rescue. I doubt it's in the LBC but I'll keep my eyes peeled just in case.

Matt, hope you find it!!! I'll keep my eyes open and beat down anyone suspicious

John's place was broken into yesterday, and he lives across the street from Saddleback Church. There aren't any true "safe" places anymore

I'm so sorry to hear about that Matt! I'm so paranoid about my bikes that I lock them to the wall inside our locked garage. I hope you find it!

Major Bummer!

Do you have homeowner's or renters insurance? Most cover stolen items from your home. Even with a deduct, you could still probably come out net positive, or break even. I recovered $2k for real nice hardtail stolen a year and half back.
