heather replied to Ashleigh Johnson's discussion STOLEN CLASSIC BIKE"Tell the police about the woman and phone call, and ask for their advice. Either she bought a 'hot' bike; is a hoax trying to get money out of you; or is associated with the thief.

"That does indeed sound suss. I wonder if there's any point alerting Gary Mills, Elizabeth Star Cycles, in case she got her "reward" out of a local resident since the call. (I believe Bike Station helped to track a distinctive bike…"
Ashleigh Johnson replied to Ashleigh Johnson's discussion STOLEN CLASSIC BIKE"well she never replied, never sent a picture of the bike or called back. My guess is she freaked out when realizing it was all over the net, too difficult to sell illegally and needed money for drugs (prob why she called at 1 am). Phone…"
Gus K replied to Ashleigh Johnson's discussion STOLEN CLASSIC BIKE"Good news, but I don't understand the phone trace bit. Were you with the police? If not I think you should offer to meet at a local police station and exchange, don't pay any other way.
Good luck."
Ashleigh Johnson replied to Ashleigh Johnson's discussion STOLEN CLASSIC BIKE"its close to mine, yes barney (classical bicycle shop) made this bike but its a custom bike, also different tires and baskets. my seat is a little sun bleached and matte, the one in the window is quite shiny. Thanks for keeping an eye out,…"
Rob (Chewbacca) replied to Ashleigh Johnson's discussion STOLEN CLASSIC BIKE"I have seen a bike identical to this one in the Classic Bike Shop in Pultney Street in the city. Is that the place you bought yours from? Hope you get yours back Ashleigh."
"I suspect a bike like that will be sitting under someone's tree at the moment and might finally make an appearance tomorrow. Fingers crossed for you Ashleigh."
Ashleigh Johnson replied to heather's discussion Thieves target bicycles"Just got a 1 am phone call from a rough sounding lady wanting to know how much she could get for the reward. Said she bought in a Elizabeth park for $150 and put a photo on Facebook, then said someone had seen the advert…"
Ashleigh Johnson replied to Ashleigh Johnson's discussion STOLEN CLASSIC BIKE"Cheers Rob, was my only mode of transport and baskets were a great help for art supplies and shopping. Perhaps i'll have a picnic if she comes home, fingers crossed she comes home. "

Police allege the bike, worth about $4,000, was stolen from an Adelaide address on 14-Dec-2011. The Stepney woman was charged with theft and making a false declaration to a second-hand dealer.

Hi Ashleigh,
Today I saw your flyers on bicycle parking around Rundle Mall. (Have you checked AC group Stolen Bikes under topic IF your bike is stolen?) The classic bike might be sold in Norwood where much cycling chic style. I can provide list of 20 bicycle parking locations around The Parade if you ask. However, I would leave off your next flyer the footnote hoping that the woman will contact you. Suspect the woman was not genuine, and gives the impression the bike has gone to northern suburbs.
Cheers, Heather

hi ashleigh. did i ask you if you want to receive the monthly prospect bug newsletter. (i coordinate both adelaide bug and prospect bug.) it contains general cycling info, plus state, adelaide and prospect. with the cbd only 6km away, many prospect cyclists ride into the city. the next issue will contain a stolen bike report for daniel. could do the same for you. cheers, heather

Hi Ashleigh, Welcome to Adelaide BUG but sorry about the circumstances. There are previous discussions about stolen bikes and hints on seeking. Recommend that you search on 'stolen' in the box in the top right hand corner of an AC screen. Cheers, Heather
