    Stolen Monkey Bike

    Got it back!!
    I posted an ad on craigslist offering a $100 reward and a guy called me saying it was in his yard when he got home from work. 25 minutes away from where I live.
    It has minimal damage and I am just happy to have it back.

    Good to hear you got it back. That doesn't happen often. Goes to show the power of Craigslist and a little cash.

    You actually gave the guy money? I would totally feel ripped off giving the thief or the dad of the thief money for something that's rightfully yours in the first place.

    "Dude's kid" would have gotten his ass beat if he was mine and in fact stole it. To be honest if I was sure my kid stole the bike, the beating would have happened in front of the victim of the theft, and no money would have been exchanged.

    And no I don't care how you feel about how I raise my children.

    The guy said he only has a 22 year old daughter, and he didn't want the reward.

    Oh, you didn't mention that part. From the first post you had me thinking the guy was playing dumb and ended up taking your cash. How did they steal it again? P.S. Did you ask for the daughter's number?

    I dont understand how ANY mini bike can get stolen unless you leave it visible and unattended....I lock my stuff up and then use a cable lock on top of that. Glad you got it back, be more careful.

    found out my garage door sensitivity was screwed up and it opens back up after it closes sometimes. Stupid safety features.
