It’s a long story, would not bother me if you choose to skim:My bike was stolen from outside my work way back in November. It was due to my naivety of proper bike ownership (I grew up in a Womens They Call Me Mommy Because Partner In Crime Mothers Day T Shirt area that had no bike culture.) I didn’t know anything about bike security,i.e. I bought a crummy cable lock and left the bike in a mostly secluded location at night. I didn’t even record the serial numbers. ALWAYS record the serial numbers! I was heartbroken and beat myself up for lacking so much common sense.The bike was something special, it was given as a gift from a family friend upon meeting her for the first time. She gave me a beautiful, mint condition 1987 Trek Elance 330 that she had purchased new from an ex-boyfriend’s bike shop in San Ramon, CA, when she was exactly my age. It had been garaged for about fifteen years. I fell in love instantly. I took it into my local bike shop, and had a difficult time waiting for the tune up to finish. I must have walked by the store three days in a row! My first serious bike, and it fit me perfectly. I have a difficult time finding bikes that do. I’m very short and get mistaken for being in high school all the time. That bike took me down bike routs, over bridges, to my first job, on several late night rendezvous, and into a new level of young adulthood and worldly consciousness (That might sound really stupid to say, but I’m sure most members of our wonderful bike community understand it.) I was even hit by a car on the bike, that was pretty insane and incredibly lucky, the bike and I walked/rolled away from the accident with one spilled coffee, a permanent hip scuff, chipped paint, and a partially broken pedal to our left sides. Nothing was severely harmed or damaged and I decided to let the elderly couple that hit me go without exchanging information or reporting them (I’m actually not that cool, I was in shock from the impact and kept rambling about how I was late for a theater production meeting and my director was going to kill me!) But, I do believe in karma(lol) and felt it would be wrong to try and get money out of people when I didn’t need it.

Best Womens They Call Me Mommy Because Partner In Crime Mothers Day T Shirt
The night my Trek was stolen, I filed a police report and registered it to the stolen bike registry. On the Womens They Call Me Mommy Because Partner In Crime Mothers Day T Shirt of my father, I even called a few local pawn stores (they hate this, don’t do it!) One particular owner told me that ,”You’re never going to see your bike again, accept it and just buy a new bike.” Weeks went by, and then months passed. I bought another bike, an identical, but very rough, 330 Elance, in a 52cm frame. It was a bit too big for me, but I didn’t realize it because I possessed no knowledge of bikes. This time I made sure to purchase a crummy U-lock. I remained alert to my surroundings for a long time, asking myself the “hypothetical” question of what I would do if I ever encountered my bike again. Two weeks ago I had a phone conversation with my dad. He said he wished I had never lost the bike. I agreed, but told him I had accepted the fact that I would never see it again.Eventually, the new owners arrived, before the police officer. They were, of course, surprised and unsure at first. I began spouting out every detail about the bike, pointing out all the modifications that had been made to it, the bike shop it had originated from in California, the matching paint chip markings from old pictures of the bike that I had saved on my phone (including the maintenance picture I took at the bike shop that was now helping me to recover my bike.) I even went as far as pulling up my shirt and showing them the matching “scuffs” the bike and I shared on our left sides. It was the break petals that convinced them, I told them how I had chipped the right one leaning over too far on some pavement the first day I ever rode it and that the left one had been broken in my accident. The man said, “There’s no way you could have known that about the pedals.” and that was all the convincing I needed to do.
