I had a Specialized Epic FSR Marathon mountain bike stolen today at the corner of MLK Blvd and Ash street at about 1PM. It was not locked up. The frame size is medium and the color is charcoal. It has a Thompson seat post, disc brakes, XTR paddle shifters and rear derailleur. I think the front Derailleur and cranks are XT. Tires are S-Works. No dings or dents. Serial number is PN313757.
If you have any info contact Laura or Dick at 503-636-7377

The bike is stock, silver with black highlights/components with the following

different front and rear brake disks (front wheel replaced)
modified ToPeak Explorer quick release rack on back (one of lower left bottom
brackets removed to make space for disk brake)

The cable ties for the computer pickup on the front (Manitou) suspension forks
have not been clipped.
Purchased at the Bike Gallery and has the sticker on the downtube

PS: Reward of dinner for two anywhere you freaking want in portland.
my POS raleigh record. Initially was a dark red, now covered in duct tape.
straightish handlebars with mtb bar ends. most notable about the bike
would be the strange looking ergonomic seat which has no front part and is
put up very high. stomp pedals with yellow power grip straps. silver
spedometer “cycolmeter” brand that’s always on. two bottle cages, back one
is black front one is rusted with the top bent out of shape. rear wheel
has a broken spoke wrapped around another spoke. 27×1.25 tires. Red rear
blinker attached to the seat post. Nice black rack, attached to the seat
strangly.Stolen from 53rd and stark today 7-11-06 during the middle of the
day. I could not imagine anyone trying to sell it. I do see them
abandoning it on the eastside after they realize what a piece of crap bike
it is (I still love it and use it to get all around portland). Really I
had no idea anyone would bother trying to steal this bike. If you see it
please call Nathan at 503-239-3972 anytime.
small addendum: bike was stolen on 8/11/06 and
yardko@yahoo.com is my email, thanks

My bike just got stolen less than 3 hours ago. i stupidly locked the
bike only by the front wheel because i thought i’d be gone only for a
second… entire bike taken except for front wheel and u-lock.
bike description: 1990’s blue cannondale 54 cm (although i just
bought it and made several adjustments). cannondale written in white,
R-600 racing written in green. “made in USA” sign with american flag
on frame. if the handlebars are still attached, new stem by
“dimension” brand attached, “salsa” h-bar handlebars with “short and
shallow” written on handlebars. black handlebars, black bontrager cork
tape with reflective red “B”s at ends of handlebar. the saddle is a
woman’s DOLCE 155 in black leather with little circle indentations for
design. if they kept the rear wheel, they are Sun Rims M13 II with
avocet cross II tires. i think most of the bike is shimano- shimano
RSX hb hub on wheels, shimano pedals, shimano brakes…
i love this bike. purchased from sellwood bikes very recently, just
had it fitted yesterday at the bike gallery. i just moved to portland
and today was the first day i rode downtown from southeast.
please call me at ***** if you see this bike anywhere. the
handlebars look a little too high for a typical road bike (i tried to
make a man’s racing bike into a girl’s commuter bike) or email me at
******

28 year-old Southeast Portland resident Mika Lepisto was frustrated after his recent search for a used bike. He scoured Craigslist and local newspaper classifieds to no avail,
“Everyone uses a different word to describe something, and it’s hard to find what you want. As an example, for a mountain bike, it’s either written out as “Mountain Bike”, “MTB” or “bike for sale.”
I just had my bike stolen today from outside my office — the Towne
Storage building at 17 SE 3rd Avenue — zip is 97214. It was locked
up with a cable lock — not the biggest gauge wire, but not skinny
either — and it looks like they hit it with cable cutters.
It was a 1997 Cannondale mountain bike with a head shock. Tough to
replace as I had a friend working in the tech department for
Cannondale at the time and he put it together with parts he tested
(thus the aluminum crank and other niceties).
I’ve attached pictures taken back in 2004 — sorry they’re so grainy.
I also just put in a police report with Officer Hill from the NE
precinct (I live in NE and they came to the house).
Please feel free to contact me if you need any additional info.
Thanks a ton for this service and for your help.
Best,

Michael Wolfe is an unabashed bike nut. About the only thing that gets him more excited than riding, is discovering and sharing new bike routes with others.
Last winter, he showed me a whole new perspective on the Sandy River when I joined him for my first-ever recumbent ride. Then, back in February I shared some of his favorite ways to escape the city by bike.
My new Trek road bike was stolen from outside Barnes & Noble at Lloyd Center
Aug 10th between 3-6 pm. It’s blue and black with fenders on both wheels and
a rack in the back. I just bought it last week from The Bike Gallery. Serial
# TBI-0405 046H2729. Please contact Tracey with any information
503-880-3358. Thanks.
The crash in Beaverton last week that claimed the life of Mike Wilberding has sparked outrage and spurred action from citizen activists.
The incident has caused some cyclists to question the priorities of bike advocates and city planners. One commenter asked,
“what is the more important fight at this time: more bike infrastructure or vastly improved law enforcement to protect cyclists?”
Many people are fed up with what they consider just the latest example of too lenient punishment doled out by authorities for fatal crashes that involve cyclists. In the case of Wilberding, the motorist at fault was issued a $242 ticket for “failure to yield to a bicyclist.”
