Thief's broke into my storage shed in the early am and stole both my Surly and my wife's 2006 Trek 520. It is my belief that individual that I sold a frame to on Craigslist earlier in the week was simply casing my home for theft. Whoever stole my bikes removed the entire lock from the outside of my shed with the tools specific to the job and took only the bikes, leaving thousands of dollars in skiing and climbing gear. Let it be a warning to all that take due prudence when dealing on Craigslist and meet people in public location to exchange goods and money. Protect yourself better than I did.
