Well, just when you think it's safe to go out there someone has to come into your world and crap in your Cheerios. My bike was stolen last night from the Charlotte Street Pub. Ty has been using the planet x to get around town since my arrival and last night he came out of the pub only to find the large piece of wood it was locked to broken and the bike gone. Apparently some low life bike thief decided he needed to either hit the pump track at 2am or sell a bike and hit some crack rock. I bet it was the second one although
Asheville does have a core bike scene. If anyone sees her out for a ride under some
hoodrat's ass please throw a frame pump in the spokes and don't worry one bit about breaking a few spokes. If you haven't met her, here are a few specs.
White Planet X with a red, white, and black stick on frame pad
Black Reba Fork with no stickers
Profile Cranks with machined front chain ring/chain guide
XT Rear derailleur
Maxxis Holy Roller Tires on Rhynolite rims
Avid Mechanical brakes with Avid levers
Thompson Laidback seat post
That and the pic above should give you enough description. There's a case of your favorite coldie's for anyone who can help me get her back.
Here are a few pictures of the good times we have had lately. Oh well, blogging about it is just getting me more pissed off and it's happy hour. Death to bike thieves and karma's a bitch. Update at 11.

AHH! I hate to hear this! I hope it turns up quick and the thief gets a good pummeling!
that totally sucks to hear.
did you file a police report?
what about filing the serial number with the national bike registry? MTBR is a good suggestion.....note to Ty: don't lock a bike to a piece of wood.
what a bummer...i know you loved that bike and pinned it on it...damn....i have a feeling someone will see it and it will turn up....hope so
