Guy downtown tonight is trying to sell a red aluminum trek 2300 for $200
thursday night around 11:30pm
he doesnt know anything about the bike, claims to have gotten it from a friend. he has no idea what its worth or the difference between carbon and aluminum.
Full ultegra gruppo
Rolf Wheels
Poorly adjusted back brake
Aero Bars
Egg beater pedals
guy has been trying to sell it around the alexandria on 5th and spring.
If its yours i'll buy it from him and you can give me the $200 bucks, i'm pretty sure the bike is worth over a grand
reply
i bet you can talk the price down too... "hmmm i only have $40"

i'm betting it belongs to some weekend roadie or something. you dont see a lot of aero bars and eggbeaters on MR rides. I posted on craigslist too. Hope they get it back.
Lance and andrew want to go down there and take it back just for fun.

Just point at him and scream "Hey that's my bike!! Give me back my bike!!" Maybe he'll drop it and scram.

you should buy it, secretly videotape the whole thing, and post a found ad on craigslist, and i think after two weeks if noone claims it its yours, otherwise when someone does claim it, show the video to prove you actually bought it for 200 bucks, turn it in to the police and ask the roadie to reimburse you because 200 bucks wouldn't cover those shifters you just got back for him.

and then if he tries to turn it around on you, show him this timestamped thread and bam.
