As if the day was not fucked up enough…got home and someone had broken in and stolen the following… Zipp 909’s 2 pair new Time Equipe shoes 1 front wheel - Mavic Hub - Mavic rim 28 spoke 2X 2 Helmets - Giro Boreas 1 ITM Big One Stem - 110mm 1 new Vitoria Corsa CX TT Tubular
Not sure yet if any other things are gone. Window frame is all torn up too…damnit.
With out question someone who knew what they were looking for. The Litespeed Ultimate was out and near the door as well. Dog locked in the bedroom. I think now that I am missing brake levers as well…I think they were with the other missing items. I will have to check that out.
I am thinking that it is a employee of the company who mows my yard. A few weeks ago this one was asking me about my Softride. I happend to be out on the Zipps just for kicks on a short ride. He was looking in the house and saw the Litespeed in the living room…asked to see it. He lifted it and proclaimed that his “GT” was a bit lighter but that was only because he had “all custom shit” on it and nothing was stock but the frame (while smoking a Camel Light). He was talking just plain out his ass…then he told me that if I was smart I would get the shifters that are in the brake levers like his are…So I tell him that “those are Campy Record levers…they ARE in the shifter”…so we talk for a bit and I went in.
He was mowing my yard yesterday. He knows my schedule a bit, knows my dog would not attack him…and would not really be odd to see him in the yard…I will have the police on him shortly.
I could literally leave those exact items in my front yard, out here in West Little Rock, and, feel safe in the knowledge, that they would stay in the exact place I left them, for years, never stolen, nobody understanding what the hell that shit was: especially those bright yellow shoes.
