I had my bike stolen from work. I was shocked. It was not the concept that my bike had been stolen that had shocked me, but the manner in which it had been stolen.
I parked it at the front door of a big ass research building with huge windows right in front. This place is high security, as in we have at least three 24 hour surveillance cameras looking at our front door and our parking lot. 1 of the cameras was directly looking at my bike, so once I get a hold of the building manager, I will have a crisp video of who stole it, possibly from multiple angles.
I carry my U-Lock bike key on me at all times. I’m fairly certain I had locked it up. What’s just as odd, is that the place this thing was stolen from is barely visible from the street, and the building is basically in the middle of a field with 1 or 2 other buildings by it. We have little/no random pedestrians, especially 5pm on a Sunday night which is when it was stolen. We don’t even have that many random people drive by.
I don’t care about the money, I can afford $400 for a new bike, but once I get a copy of the surveillance camera, that guy’s face will be all over NDSU, hit the NDSU mass-email list, and the bike pawn shops. If I don’t see it back with in a week I’ll pay to put this guy’s face in the paper.
I can probably contact local new stations and say “Hey, I have a video of a person dumb enough to steal a bike in front of a camera” and they may take 15 seconds to show it. The media in Fargo, ND shows stupid crap all the time, I’m sure I can persuade them to put up a local stupid criminal.
Really, who is dumb enough to go to a high security building, and steal stuff from directly in front of it? Here's a tip for all criminals, don't piss off nerdy scientists!

Argh, I checked security cameras, I have 2 kids about 14-15 stealing my bike. I have it from 3 angles, and don't have the resolution on any of the cameras to ID anyone.

running is better for you anyways LMFAO You'll never believe this shit. The Police actually found my bike and returned it to me. The accesories, like lock and bike bag ($35 total) were missing, but everything else was in tact! Maybe it helped that I called all the bike/pawn shops and told them to be aware of anyone who was selling a black Trek 820. I still can't believe the Police actually got it back! Time to go return the new $300 bike I just bought yesterday lmao. |
