Bikes!!!!!!!

Since I have know Andy he has had three bicycles stolen from him.

1) The first bike he had was a bike he rode to work when we first met. This was 5 1/2 years ago. We worked together and one night it was really cold outside and we got off work about the same time so I offered him a ride home. The next day at work he told me that his bike had been stolen the night before because he didn't ride it home.

2) Bike #2 Andy bought with his own money after getting his first college degree. The bike was a huge investment for him. He used it primarily for mountain biking. When we moved to Denver he started using it to commute to work. One day his bike was stolen from work. (this was in April 2005

3) Bike #3 is the most tragic. For 2 months after bike #2 was stolen, Andy and I looked and searched and Andy had researched for a new bike. We were at R.E.I. at what they call a garage sale (used/returned and damaged items) and we found a $1,800 bike for about $3oo. His size and perfect. Not long after we bought it, the bike was stolen from our basement of our house. The house is shared with another couple and we share access to the basement. Someone got into the side door and took only the bike. Our neighbor's have exercise equipment and stuff down there two.

4) Will there be bike #4... Gosh I hope not.
