Stolen Bike
So I was studying in my room right up until 10 minutes before my econ test, and when I get outside, I see that my bike has been stolen. So now I have about 5 minutes to run from Hedden to MDCL so im not late for my test....

But that's really not thew main issue. Im pissed off because it was a good bike that I paid a good 200 bucks for. (Mind you that was like 5 years ago)

Either way, I had a decent lock and my bike looks like a piece of shit so I dont really know why anybody would go through the effort of stealing it. (especially since the bike rack is right out in the open).

I guess there's not much I can do but to buy a shitty bike, and keep an eye out for the dick who's riding around on my bike.

Does macycle sell cheap bikes? If not, anyone know somewhere in hamilton where I can get a cheap used bike?

first go to the security office and ask them about the bike.. they might even have camera footage of that place.. so if you know the time they might be able to track down who stole the bike... ive seen the cameras they have, they are all over campus...

for a cheap bike, g oto the bike shop beside MDCL, you will get a bike for 50 bucks...

still go talk to them..

over one of the weekends i went home, i locked my bike on a pole.. when i got back, itwasnt there...

what happened was that some students lifted the bike and covered the speed sign with my bike.. security came by and cut it down., i went to the security office and they told me all this and gave me my bike back... and my cut off lock.. :)

Haha, was that the bike by the hospital by the hospital at the edge of campus? I saw that and I was wondering how it got up there... I thought it was kinda funny.

lolol.. yeah that was the bike... i kinda wondered how it got there too...

im not sure if they were trying to steal it and failed.. or they just put it up there for the hell of it.. either way it was pretty funny when the security showed me a picture of the bike on top of the pole and asked me if that was my bike...
