Where does this leave Cinelli Pope handlebars?
What about the later copies with revisions? Are they Episcopal bars?
Are Jones bars more aptly named Mormon bars for their quintessentially American
origin?
Are track drops on a Pistachio Buddhist bars? Or would that be chopped off

Why not? You would reign in references to racist or sexist terms, would you
not? On what basis then do you include other offensive statements published
on list?
Now, the Monty Python reference doesn't bother me, even though I am a
practicing Orthodox Christian who was raised traditional Roman
I can’t imagine anything more ludicrous.

Good for you and good for the owner. I will only chastise you about one thing:
You left us all hanging as to why the bike was there. Columbo never ended the
show like that. Give up the 411!

This episode also furthers the need to register your bikes with BikeIndex.org
I hope the bike gets home and I hope that all is resolved without hard feelings
or martial intervention.

But spreading the word is the whole point. It just so happens that
apparently the RBW Owners Bunch is chock full of internet litigators.
Sure, life is full of gray areas. Operating on the motivational principle,

Hi, I'm the guy that posted this in the first place.
I have exchanged emails with the Craiglist poster. I have a report from
someone in the neighborhood who spoke with him in person.
He has reposted the ad. He has asked me on more than one occasion if I've
had any luck on my end tracking
I read a thread on crazyguyonabike not long ago by a couple whose tandem was
stolen in New Orleans (I think) while they were eating lunch on their cross
country tour. The bike was rather immediately purchased by a good samaritan,
knowing it was stolen, for a song. Amazingly, he found the true

I’ll agree with all of this on the condition that we all agree that purchasing
a bike you think is stolen to try and return it to the rightful owner is also a
crime, raises as many or more ethical issues, and should no longer be praised.
Intentions don’t matter, right? Purchasing stolen
As in the rest of life - intentions don’t matter, impact does. The impact is
that someone has now definitely had their bike stolen.

I'm going to say that if that were my bike and "something bad happened" to me I
would NOT want a stranger to cut my lock and put it in their garage and try to
look for me.
Even if "something bad" happens to me I will know where I left my bike and will
return for it or send someone for it.
Yep! At what point does a "the owner didn't claim it" bike become "my
bike"? When I saw that Sam in San Francisco, locked up outdoors for months
on end, I twice placed an ad on Craigslist asking the owner that if she or
he no longer wanted that Sam Hillborne parked somewhere in the city, I'd
As others have mentioned, what I get hung up on is, what will the CL dude do
if/when nobody comes forward for the bike? Does he have an ultimate plan on
that? Will he eventually assume nobody is coming back for it and relinquish it
to the police as a 'found item'? Or will he keep it
I skapprove if Bill’s armchair lawyer assessment and of his lawyer friend’s

across the street from my apartment for over 72 hours. That neighbor was a

About five years ago I occasionally walked past an orange Sam Hillborne
that had been locked up in one place, outdoors, for so long that the
components were all rusted and the spokes were a tangle of spider webs. I

Bill, I'm sure you'd return the money if you knew that it came from someone
who lost everything:

I agree with the idea to post a notice where the bike was letting the owner
know how to contact you. If they were somehow unable to get to their bike for a
few weeks (maybe in a coma?) and then went back to retrieve it, there should be
some way for them to find it.

When the Craiglist ad expires in ~2 weeks, who will remember it?
Poster should at least make VERY PUBLICLY CLEAR and known his/her
name, address, phone number-- maybe then "the community" will be
better able to help connect the owner back with their stolen property.
