Bikey: 2006-2007. RIP. Someone senselessly destroyed this bike while it was locked to a signpost. Downtube, headtube, fork, and front wheel were all wrecked beyond repair. Drivetrain parts, brake levers, seatpost, etc. is going on the singlespeed I'm building for my girlfriend, though, so that's good.

I read (on bikeforums) how some jerk assaulted your bike. So sad. Reminds me of the scene in The Shipping News, where some drunk Newfoundlanders absolutely riot on a guy's freshly restored boat; that scene brings me to tears, and your story comes close.
