bikes

Did I tell you that our garage was broken into last week? And ALL of our bikes were stolen? Our insurance won't cover my bike or Ray's because we can't find the receipts and we don't have pictures of them. Or of his leather jacket. Or his tools......
SO -- if you have a picture of me in the last 10 years on or with my bike -- let me know! I can't believe that I don't have a picture of it. It's a blue and white gary fisher mountain bike. A "tarpon". I am SO annoyed.
It looked exactly like this. It wasn't expensive at all (kind of "bottom of the line") But it was mine and I managed to hold onto it for 8 years!!!

So sorry to hear this Martha. I hate it when this happens. We've had many bikes stolen and it's an awful feeling. Maddening.

Sorry to hear about your nasty theft. We experienced the same thing last year with golf clubs.. nothing to do but lament as the insurance would not cover it either.

Sorry to hear about the bikes. Having things stolen makes one feel personally violated.

Big ouch! I'm so sorry you had a break-in. A pox on the thieves.

Sorry to hear about the break in. I've also gone through the pain of reporting to insurance and getting replacements. I hope you find a way to get it replaced.

That's an awful feeling. I've been told many times to use a video camera and walk room to room slowly taping the contents. If needed, for insurance purposes, all your stuff is on record. Good idea huh? Still haven't done it.

That is terrible! I am so sorry. I love my bike and know exactly how you must feel. Ugh!
