My trusty silver and blue 2001 Schwinn Mesa (and my silver and blue bike helmet) were stolen from my garage sometime during the late night hours of Monday July 31st. I live near Alberta Park around NE 19th and Killingsworth. The person who stole my bike walked up my neighbor’s driveway, opened my latched side gate, and then walked thru my backyard to my garage, which was also latched but not locked (I’d forgotten to attach the lock that night–never again!)
My bike’s serial number is M0CI03750. It is on the smaller side (15″ frame?), has thin knobby tires rather than the traditional mountain bike tires, has shocks on both the front fork and the seat, and has a kryptonite lock attached under the seat pointing toward the back of the bike. It also has a cordless odometer attached to the handlebars (right side). The handlebars aren’t the usual mountain bike type either, they have more of a rise to them, like a cross between a mountain bike and a cruiser. The seat has a small tear on the top side, I think on the right.
I am heartbroken about this. If anyone has any information or leads please contact me at heatherdoc@yahoo.com or call 503-804-2736.
