Yeah, it was a fucked up situation. I had moved out of that house and had planned to go back over and ride my bike home. A few days after I moved I came down with the shingles and was unable to retrieve my bike (and a lot of other stuff) and during that time the scumfuck who replaced me as a room mate either sold it or got it stolen.

When I found out I was out for blood.

Now I love in one of the most intense bike theft counties in the nation. So I think a nice $150 Craig's List bike is in order.

Be careful. If you're buying from craigslist, you've got a good chance of buying from a thief or a fence. In other words, you're supporting the same kind of crooks who not only have screwed you in the past, but who continue to make cycling a riskier investment.

Indeed, it is a hazard.

So far I've contacted two people about very nice bikes for cheap.

Asked them for the serial number to make sure it's not hot and never heard back from either of them.
