sooooo… i decided to treat myself and get a basket for my bike of 5 years, it also had a flat that needed to be repaired as well. took it down to Chicago Bike Shop in the strip mall on the corner of Superior and PCH in Newport Beach to ger it all hooked up. dropped it off to get fixed over night. went in the next day to pick it up and they “lost” it somehow, now keep in mind this was a kinda nice bike, i mean at least to some people… a Schwinn Cruiser Alloy SS, made before schwinn got bought by pacific and then they started making the junker schwinns you can get at Wal Mart today, at any rate, to somebody who knows bikes, this is a score, and the owner of Chicago Bikes knows bikes… long story short (i know its already long) my bike somehow got stolen from inside the bike shop over night and now the owner is refusing to get me a new bike or pay me back in any way, also adding that my bike was a “rusty piece of junk that you could find in any alley in Newport beach anyhow, it isnt worth ANYTHING” and that hes “trying to be cool and help me out and im trying to take advantage of his kindness”, really? i dont remember asking to get my bike ripped off insted of a new basket and a fixed flat? i guess if thats what i asked for then i would be happy he dosnt wanna help me cover the cost of replace it. BUT, i didnt ask to have him “lose” my bike, i just wanted to treat myself, i mean, i ride that thing more than a few miles a day. yeah yeah, i went to the police, they dont even care at all, they got better things to do, im not sure what exactally, i know doing their jobs isnt at the top of the list. anyhow, i just felt the need to let everyone know just how sad i am… life is only downhill from here, and i gotta walk all the way down. fuck.
now whats ol’ Snickers gonna hide behind to scare people?
so long sweet bike, you will never EVER know just how much i miss you. (crying a little)
