STOLEN BIKE

this is the first time I have to post a picture of a stolen bike and I hope this doesn't happen too often in the future!

this bike was stolen from a bike syndikat member on 27th november in the altstadt in cologne
rupe was involved in an accident and while the ambulance took care of him, some asshole stole his bike, mobile phone and wallet.
I think it is really disgusting to steal things from an injured person. below you can find a picture of his a bike, a green nishiki. if you know anything about the incident or if you see the the bike somewhere around town, lock it up and get in touch with me or bike syndikat. thanks for your help.

THE RIDE OF YOUR LIFE

the video starts a little odd but after 0:30 it gets really nice.

RESULTS DEPESCHEHÖPPER 2009

finally a short write-up on last weeks alleycat.
the day was rainy and cold, but when the race finally started it stopped raining.
the racers had to do 3 manifests, with various checkpoints throughout the city.
best checkpoint was in mühlheim, the riddle was hard but the glühwein was good, thanks FRANK!
ANJA could defend her title as cologne messenger champion, followed by MARCEL and MAGNUS.
thanks JAN for the organsiation and to BIKE SYNDIKAT and GHETTO COLOGNE for the prices!
here are some pics:
