Hi -
While I was out of town, someone entered my garage and made off with two bikes. One of them was my purple Rivendell Custom. My understanding from my son is that the theft took place late on Thursday, March 31 or early on Friday, April 1.
I don't think it's reasonable to expect to recover the bike - but just in case anyone sees it - I will post a few photos after this thread is established.
Thanks in advance,
Corwin

So sorry to hear this what a shame. I'm down in Los Angeles but I'll still keep an eye out for it.

That's a shame. We should all keep an eye out for this bike. Bikes stolen in LA often go to the Bay Area, & vice versa, hoping to evade local eyes. Probably a similar problem between Portland & Seattle.

A few years ago I had a Trek 720 stolen. I posted on bikeforums.net and was advised to list my bike on bikeindex.org. I did so and did recover the frame as a result about a year and a half later. Fortunately, I did have the serial number to list. Without that, I suspect the listing would not have been effective. Now, if I'm looking at a used bike to buy, I will search bikeindex to see if it might be listed.

I saw the BikeIndex post on twitter, and broadcast it. Good luck.
