Look out for this stolen bike if you can

Our good friend Karl-Thomas Musselman over at political site Burnt Orange Report lives carfree and recently had his bike stolen. We’re hoping he can still get it back. Description follows.

3388339109_29b2c9d2d7My blue/black Trek 3700 that I bought back in 2004 and have put a few thousand miles on probably, was stolen from 902 E 5th Street (technically, from Brushy) outside my office between 3pm March 25th – 7am March 26th. It was locked to the bike pole with a u-lock but neither was to be found.

Make/Model: Trek 3700
Color: blue & black
Accessories: 21 gears, Cateye LED light on front and red cateye LED on back, rear tire metal wire rack
Markings: expired 2004-06 era UT-Austin PTS bike ID sticker on descending stem, pedals marked with “L” and “R” from when I had to disassemble the bike to ship it to Massachusetts
Serial #: BA3CL214

There is a case number with APD and I’m trying to get in touch with pawn & bike shops but I can’t make it to them all because I don’t have a car, so if you’re near one and can check it out in Austin, I appreciate it.
