Sorry for your loss. What part of Melwood is the Wellington on? That street winds through a few neighborhoods.
STOLEN: Jamis Coda bicycle
Last night (10/20/10) I locked my bike on a black gate on Melwood Ave next to the Wellington apartment building at 9:30, and at 8:30 this morning I walked out and it was gone. I was so sure I locked it to both the frame and the tire, but it was dark. I should have triple checked.
The bike is a red Jamis Coda (see picture) and there is a large gash on the top tube where the paint was scraped off after a fall on the curb.
It has a rack attached to the back, and a red LED light secured to the rack. I'd like to think that Pittsburgh has a tight-knit bike community and that we're all looking out for one another. If you see anyone riding this bike around Pittsburgh, PLEASE do something. I'm also willing to pay $200 for the bike's recovery, so there's that incentive as well.
This is my source of transportation and with that, my means for independence. I would really, really love the community's help in retrieving it. Email me if you think you've seen it or found it. It's jmartina7489@gmail.com THANK YOU in advance for your assistance.
Close to the intersection of Melwood and Centre, or about three storefronts down from Mitchel's Tavern.
please don't forget to post to craigslist and file a police report!
I hope your wheels are located safe and sound very, very soon!
Email sent. I may have seen something.

Where's this picture?
Oh whoops, I copy/pasted my Craigslist post onto this one and must have forgotten to delete that part from this message.
