Now, how does one even begin to accomplish that?

do you have any pictures of it in case we see it on the road by chance? Any distinguishing marks?

yeah pics, I'm curious about this bikecar is.

Very hard to miss, not too many like it.
If the perp is ignorant enough to have actually gotten someone to ride it around, the resulting recovery operation would be like candy from a baby.

Distinguishing... I believe it has a license plate on it that says CMOB or something like that?
imachynna04.27.09 - 11:04 pm

I can't imagine that would stay on there. but. yeah who steals fucking bike car!?!? It's going to be sold to some bike shop rental place on the beach I bet.

This is un fucking believable, it's actually not easy to get it out of where it was kept, you need two people to shimmy it out. This happened sometime between 6 and 10pm tonight, Monday, April 27, 2009.
It's big, blue, no longer has headlamps on the front, otherwise it looks just like the above pictures. The model is a Ciclofan Delfini, but we all know it as the CrankMobile....
I am truly sad, it brought the F.U.N. wherever it went. I wish unending bad karma on those that did this.

I'm hoping this is a prank. Why wasn't it locked up?
Joe Borfo04.27.09 - 11:15 pm

Yeah, I'm hoping it was a prank too.
imachynna04.27.09 - 11:18 pm

Wait, this wasn't locked?
User104.27.09 - 11:25 pm
reply
It was not locked, it has a bad front drum brake, it takes the manpower of two to get it through my apt bldgs fence. It was basically being used a bike rack, other bikes are usually locked up to it, making it virtually impossible to take out of the yard, unless it's lifted 4 ft into the air, over the fence.
But today, there were no other bikes locked up to it... Opportunistic bastards.

Pretty sure it's not a prank, there is a bike locked up next to a tree a few feet away outside of my fence, and it's clear they attempted to cut that cable lock and failed.

I guess the next thing they'll do is stake out my house. I still got 4 bikes left bitchesssssss! Come and get em.

In all seriousness, can you file a police report for grand theft? I'm not clear as to those rules (theft/grand theft), but it seems as though you can use the retail value as a basis.
/seriousness.

Any thief I catch is getting a fat ass fist to their dome.
Let's set up mini stings and fuck these fake ass hustlers up for fucks sake.
Allencito04.28.09 - 3:24 pm
reply
oh, a sting is in the works. there will actually be regular "Neighborhood Watch" style rides coming up in Santa Monica and Venice. Meet up on the weekend, scour the streets looking for suspicious folks, catch a thief or two, get some Bravo or Abbott's Pizza afterwards.
Email is in my profile if you're a westsider and you want to stand up.
jericho1ne04.28.09 - 3:42 pm

ahh really?! what a huge disappointment!
well, it's not like they could get very far with it, so it's probably still in the area. hopefully someone spots it sooner than later.
the bikecar will definitely be missed :(
deboRAWR04.28.09 - 5:44 pm

Are you kidding me??? I saw it last night in front of Vons on Centinela. I was thinking wtf bikecar? How many of those are there? Same place as that picture with fuzzbeast on it.
sezdaniel04.28.09 - 11:54 pm

File the Police Report, Contact Vons on Centinela, Watch the video tape footage to see if you recognize the person who stole it. Take Police to suspects house and arrest them, then recover the CrankMoblie!!!!!
Let us know how it turns out!!!

@sezdaniel -

In my response to my "stolen" post on Craigslist:
"i saw a guy yes. riding that thing in mar vista, young white guy bout 25 yrs old ,at the cross of victoria and beethoven next to elem. school "
If you live in that area, keep an eye out!!!

Man, what should we do if we see him? Jump him? Can the bike car go that fast.. What's your number just in case?

It's definitely mine, a friend has confirmed this. Saw a couple of dudes w/ chicks in the back joyriding it. Def our bikecar, black side view mirror, no headlamps, airhorn on the left hand side. I still can't believe he let them ride away. I will post more details later, but for now there's a new policy in effect.
Detain/beat the shit out of one of them, take their ID, call me, call 911 if you want. My cell = 517 980 1072
So hold one of the bastards down, you can let the rest get away. The rest will get ratted out by whomever's caught.
MR will get its BikeCar back.

I bet you any money the thieves abandon this and people riding it now think it's from some rental place on the beach. You wants to bet me?

its only a matter of time before we catch the culprits!
at the very least im glad its still in the vicinity.

Has this been reported stolen to the cops in the Venice/mar vista area? These idiots are going to get busted *really* soon.. Friday night will probably be prime bike car thief catching time.. I'll probably be in the Venice area Friday night, will keep a look out for it.

Has anyone brought up the idea that the thieves could be Ridazz? So
not core elite.
SPOOK04.30.09 - 10:18 pm

based on the visual accounts in the last few days. the suspect is a white male in his 20s and he most likely lives on or near Victoria Av, between lincoln and Centinela. Keep your eyes peeled and gimme a call if you see anything!
I want my bike car back !!!

Left a photo of the bikecar w/ the LAPD Pacific Division, they're down the block from where the bikecar was spotted three times. They said it's SMPD's job to track it down.
So, thanks to my buddy that ran into them, I have two real names and numbers, Kevin (main suspect), and Illiana (seen riding in the back of the bikecar). All SMPD has to do now is get up off their fat asses and run a reverse lookup and pay these suckas a visit.
I wanna ride along w/ the coppers when they go scoop'em up, stick my head out the window, and yell over the loudspeaker:
"Surrender Bike Car or Die!"
=)
jericho1ne05.4.09 - 7:27 pm

If you find the house there should be ride that just circles the block, maybe enough ridazz will show up to form a continuous loop. Maybe he'll give up the bikecar.

Seriously sweet news. That idiot is gonna get what's comin' to him. Keep us posted !!
dusky05.4.09 - 7:41 pm
reply
WOW, how did you get their names? Did your buddy see them with it and was not able to recover it??? WTF?
IF ANYONE SEES THE BIKECAR THEY SHOULD U-LOCK IT AND CALL THE PO PO TO ARREST THE ASSHOLES!!!
X-Large05.4.09 - 7:43 pm
reply
I hope to be reunited with it soon. There's a small possibility that the people seen riding it purchased it the day after it was stolen. But that's kinda fishy, just seems too unlikely. There's an SMPD Detective handling my case, I'm feeding him whatever information I got from you guys, from Craigslist, firsthand, etc. The noose is definitely tightening.
Bike car will be back, no doubt about it. The question remains whether the actual thief will be caught.
jericho1ne05.5.09 - 2:05 pm

One dilemma is what if the person who stole it sold it to some one instanly. And then someone atacks the person who bought it.

Please keep us informed. We will ride down as a show of support if necessary.

If you guys find it, we should have armed security details placed around it at all times.
If proper ID isn't presented upon request, the perps will be taken to the jetty, and summarily lashed with rawhide whips.
