Stolen: blue Schwinn

[Posted by user “heavy metal mouth”]

my blue (early 80s) schwinn varsity was stolen off a front porch at about 10 pm last night in north portland.
its a distinctive bike – medium blue w/ the original clear blue handle bar tape (unraveling a bit at one end). the decals are mostly scraped off.

at the time of its departure it had a rear bike rack (with my u lock on it), a velo seat and a yellow bike bell.
please please please contact me if you have any info about my beloved bicycles whereabouts!
thank you.

aside from it having full black tires, it looks quite a bit like this bike:
