That sucks :(

The only thing you can do is probably go buy a new one. Bikes are pretty hard to track down. I know a couple of people who've had them stolen.

Well, I got one of those tags on it, but I didn't pay for it more than 1 year, as I live in a quite small town, and didn't really think someone would take it in the middle of the day, Specially as it was quite old and the brakes aren't working

Yeah, people will pretty much steal anything that isn't tied down. What do you mean by "one of those tags?"

Older bikes are more probable to be stolen, since the owners are not that likely to go to the police compared to if it were a new bike.
Oh, and a hint: :lockd:

Maybe you can have someone drive you around to see if you can find it. Since the brakes are not working, maybe they just abandoned it close by.

Hey, that's pretty cool. Too bad I live about 5000 miles from the Nordic region :p

Maybe I'll do it anyways and if my bike is stolen and shipped to Finland, I'll be able to recover it lol

I'd think if you start paying them again, they'll put you back on file.

Ha, I wouldn't mind getting my bike stolen. It's a Kent Shogun. F.Y.I., Kent bikes suck!

Maybe if it got stolen, my parents would buy me a decent one.

That's why I buy bikes at Wal-mart for $60.

1. No one wants to steal them
2. They're cheap to replace

hmmmm, well, it could of been worse. when my father was a little boy, he had just bought himself a new bike and was riding down the side walk when some big bully came up to him and punched him off his bike and made off with it. :mad:
