Bike got torched...

^ LOL.  Hey, like I said, on those no-makeup + baseball hat days, I make an adorable little boy.

So the bike is now @ cyclemall in tustin... hopefully it won't be totaled out (worried most about the brembos). I may be posting some WTB threads if the cost is hovering around the 1/2-2/3 value of the bike.

Thaaaaaaats bull shit.  I bet that happens to bikes more often than cars.

I don't mean to pry too much, but where abouts do you live?

I live in Moorpark... Why, are gonna ride the 33 with us Sunday?

This bs is one reason my bike spends so much time in the garage and not in the streets.

LOL.  nice.  thank goodness no!

I live in Long Beach... in the 'Gayborhood.' Not an unsafe area (kinda near the 4th st. retro row district); although there is some petty crime, I think this was just an unfortunate anomaly.

yeah, sounds more like some drunk a-hole and their buddies stumbling home..."dude, watch this bro."

drag the map over to your neighborhood, zoom in and modify the date range. Then you can come back here and modify your post.   

And I'm posting this so you can begin to be more aware of your surroundings. Hopefully that will keep you safe.

Um, thanks for painting me as naive... I am aware of my surroundings, thanks... I have a few police contacts and I do understand the area. I'm closer to broadway than to 4th st.- I just named the area for reference. I understand that as one gets further away from Ocean and closer to... well, Anaheim St...  things get really rough.
It's Long Beach- unless you live in Bixby Knolls you face some risk- I get it. 

However, if you wanna see something really fun, go check out LB on a sex offender map.  Or in the papers regarding that topic.  (And yes, I'm being facetious when I say 'fun.')

How everything coming along you gonna be riding again soon?

You painted yourself as naive. Sorry if me being concerned with your safety bothered you. When I was with LB I rolled up on an in progress armed robbery at Ocean and Cerritos. My old beat was LBB to Cherry, 7th to Ocean. There is no magic line where this crap doesn't happen. 5th and Cherry is worse then Anaheim and Redondo. Anyways....be safe.
