STOLEN FROM 1601 N. NORMANDIE AVE.:
Late 70s Centurion Le Mans
• Brown w/ paint chips galore
• Bright blue handlebars
• about 62cm
• Kryptonite lock (uncoated silver/yellow) locked to front wheel
• Back tire flat
• CA bike license on seat tube expired Dec 31, 1980
This ride's in desperate need of a tune-up, so my bet is that whoever stole it is looking to turn it around for a quick $50-$100. My place is half a block off the street, so whoever took it must have been eyeing it up.
Haven't found any photos yet. Will post when I do.
Thanks yalls!

Well im not saying palucha has to be mr.upstanding citizen and personally arrest those couple of guys.
I was saying he could possibly give an hint at least of where they're located at so we know next time an theft occurs in their area we know we have one possible suspect to question.
And don't say im trying to give palucha a hard time.
I have respect for him doing an good job of maintaining himself from those 818 trolls and what not.

Yea but I don't steal. Mostly when I arrive to see some friends they are always bragging on how they stole a bike.

Palucha66 just offered to help someone recover their goods, and you're gonna talk crap because he knows some people who steal bikes? So what if he knows bike thieves, that does not make him an accessory, nor does it make him a bad guy.
He offered his help, why can't anyone thank him for that?

@coldcut: i don't hang out with them. I have friends that live on the same block and the thieves are always outside.
@Debut: Hmm idk I will eventually call the cops on them.

And by the way, Palucha66 does not have to do anything. At least he or she is being proactive in trying to make use of his friendships to possibly rectify a wrong.
I'm sure a number of people here have a friend or family member you can turn in, but turning someone over to the police is not the only answer or solution.
I think some of you need to decide whether you hate cops or not. One thread the police are the enemy, douche bag, the worst form of human existence. The next thread people are turning in photos to the police, complaining that other are not turning people in.

He didn't say he was friends with them, he said he knows them. It's possible to know the criminals in your neighborhood without being their friend or being part of their crew or doing dirt with them. Did you guys all grow up in Bradybunchville? Jeeeeeesus, cut the kid a little slack.

Thanks palucha66. Do these guys have a spot where they stash everything? I don't care that you know some dubious characters, especially if it leads to recovering my ride. Who among us is a saint (besides myself)?
coldcut, any word from gopez?
sciencefriction, yes the lock was on the front wheel/frame.
Anyway, if anyone else sees/hears anything please post (unless there's a way to pvt msg on here)! Massive ups!!

well it be honest these are little fucking kids. A 12 year old and a 16 year old. The bike they ride are stolen. The stash their bikes in a small garage in the back of their apartments. Imma go around that neighborhood to see if they have your bike.

sorry to hear, what kind of lock was it?

palucha, I'd be surprised if these kids stole it to ride it. unless they're freakishly tall for their age, which is possible. either way, lmk. thanks again!

Yeah I think I got that 12 year old almost killed one time.
It was during SantaCon. So this kid starts circling around the area scoping out our bikes.
Mother fucker.
Anywho, eddie informs everyone and the kid bounces.
I then proceed to go on pursuit just for the fuck of it,
We criss cross through alleys n' shit.
Makes a right.
Then there's this huge hill, he didn't even look both ways. A fucking hummer almost fucked him over.
Hummer, got on the curb instead.
