Sydor‚s Bike Returned!

We just received a telephone call from Hank Sydor telling us that Alison Sydor‚s race bike was returned late last night. We posted a report on Thursday evening, detailing how the locked bike was stolen from in front of a store while Alison went inside for 5 minutes. Alison was very upset, considering that the bike was a one-of-a-kind machine, with many custom parts, AND that she was leaving two days later for Europe.

Well, now comes the news that a guy telephoned her last night, asking her if she wanted her bike back! Apparently, he had bought it off somebody at a bar, and when he showed it to a mountain biking buddy, the friend told him how special the bike was (after reading about its disappearance). So, the buyer telephoned Alison, and the result is that she has her bike bike in time for her trip.
