Large Marge Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 That blows! You're the 5th friend to have their ride stolen this summer Bones... Toronto has the highest rate of bike theft in North America and yet nothing is being done to combat it. We recently had our entire Community Bicycle Network "GreenFleet" stolen out of storage. Obviously organized, the thieves must have seen the bikes being loaded into the garage, as they broke in that night, helping themselves to 12 out of 14 nearly new Norcos (all that are able to fit in a cargo-van). Thankfully the cops treated it as a "major crime" and assigned Detectives but in reality, even that hasn't seemed to help. One of the bikes was recently recovered by a member who spotted it on the street and apprehended the rider, demanding to know where it was obtained. He refused the information but relinquished the bike, gave his name and his place of employment (the bike was parked out front). This info was immediately provided to the police (2 weeks ago at least) and they have yet to follow up! It's so frustrating to know that we could easily trace the chain of sale and at least apprehend the direct profiteer, if not the whole chain of petty (and major!) thieves. There’s a sticker available that says “Bike Theft = Bad Karmaâ€; I think I’ll get you one for your next ride.

can-o-phish Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Feel for ya bro!!! Totally sucks. I ride my bike everyday which keeps me healthy and destressed. Best thing in this city is to have a bike that's not too flashy if you're just riding it around town and "dress it down" when you pick up a new one.

deranger Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) that sucks, I had mine stolen this past summer in broad daylight at yonge and college.

YearsAlongTheSea Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Aaww man, that blows. I'm sorry buddy. That bike was your jack of all trades so to speak. Hopefully karma moves in swiftly and he/she will go flying over the handle bars on their way home and land in the dog shit I forgot to pick up the other day.

MamaPink Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 i'm sorry to hear that cowboy! (and all the others who have had their bikes stolen) That's just awful!My ex use to be a Bike Courier in Toronto and had 3 bikes stolen from him in 1 year. He'd lock it up and they'd cut the lock... it was crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto has the highest rate of bike theft in North America and yet nothing is being done to combat it. on a kind of creepy side of that story.. i was waiting for my at the time girlfriend to walk her home after work.. this was around the bathurst/dundas area of toronto..i had picked up a 12 pack of beer for us to drink later on.. my box o beer caught the attention of a passer by.. the guy was riding a bike.. he stopped and started a conversation with me.. obviously wanting a beer.. so being in a kind mood at the moment i gave him a beer.. and he proceeds to tell me where he got the bike.. what this douchebag does is goes around stealing bikes to sell to another guy...the OTHER guy SNIFFS THE BIKE SEATS!!.. he doesnt care if it is a guys bike or a girls.. sorry to put that out there but its a wacky story i thought fit with this thread..i feel your pain man.. i long board all over the city if that got stolen i wouldnt know what to do with myself.
