Dear bike theft victim,
I’ve got a bike you can have for free. You probably haven’t heard of my “Unstolen Bikes” project, but you can read about it here: http://bikeportland.org/2006/01/03/unstolen-bike-ready-for-release/
The bike I have is a 16″-frame Giant Iguana from about 1992. It’s not the equal of your Klein, of course, but it works well and it might tide you over for a while.
Previously I tried asking people to tell me their stories and thus “qualify” to be notified by email where I had placed an Unstolen bike–first finder is keeper. Almost nobody did it, though. So I thought I’d go right to the stolen bike listings and look for a close match. Your listing said “only mode of transportation” and “small,” so the bike is yours if you want it.
Email me at wiseoldbikeguy[at]mindspring.com and let me know where and when you want to pick it up. I live in SE Portland and can meet up on an evening or a weekend day.
