What story! I'm so glad you got the bike back. A Gary Fischer MTB that I had for 10 years recently got stolen at a Caltrain station. I have lot of great memories associated with it (esp of taking my son around for many many rides since he was 18 months). The bike was worth $100 tops, but I'm willing to fork out many times that to get that bike back!
I'm really happy you got that beautiful bike back.
