Stolen From: My girlfriend’s house in LADD’S ADDITION! can you believe that anyone would steal a bike in fucking LADD’S ADDITION?!!!!?!!
It was resting against her New Belgium Tall-Bike in front of the porch. I noticed it was gone when I woke up around 2pm, but thought nothing of it because we usually borrow each other’s bikes. I got hold of her later around 6:30pm last night, and she told me she doesn’t have my bike.
SO, it went missing anytime between 10am and 2pm yesterday the 15th of July.

Description: I built this bike up from parts I got off Ebay, including NOS Dia-Compe brake levers/cable-housings. The wheelset came from a ’72 Schwinn Suburban, the Schwinn “S” stem-mounted shifters and stem and drop bars *NO BAR TAPE* and crankset came off a Schwinn Varsity. The seat-post is a Proponent. The seat has “shag”-style fabric all around the bottom with a Oregon Cannabis sticker where ya sit on it.
There is NO head-badge on the bike, I instead set a vintage Garbage Pail Kids “Diaper Dan” sticker where the head-badge would be.
There is also a black “Eat Shit And Die” sticker on the top tube real close to the head-set.
My bike is pretty unmistakable once seen mostly because i’ve NEVER seen another Orange/Red Schwinn Super Sport in Portland and the stickers i set on it that no one else has on their bikes.
please throw your lock on this bike if you see it and call me immediately!!!
