Thanks to a phone tip to MX Sports, CT State Police have apprehended the people behind the theft of bikes and gear at Unadilla.

Willy Browning's bike has been recovered. Ben Lamay's bike was sold, but apparently the thief is cooperating with the authorities, and they're working on recovering it as well, and it will be returned ASAP.

Besides the bikes, all the riding gear, and a $3,000 mountain bike belonging to Justin Weeks was recovered. Apparently the person responsible for the theft was parked inside the pits on Friday night, and was gone in the morning. MX Sports is working to determine how they got into the pits (apparently they came in with another person).

But all-in-all, good news!

Wow, great news. Hope the bikes aren't beaten up to bad. The thieves should have to pay restitution for the broken stuff.

Yeah, I'm not sure exactly what condition they're in, other than it sounded like they were complete, and not parted out.

Glad they caught the guy and recovered the stuff.

Justice would only partially be served if the thief was tarred and feathered then tossed out to the crowd at Southwick for a public beatdown. Evil

Willy's picking up his bike from the cops on the way to Sandwick.

Awesome.

Everybody high-five.




* Willy's stoked - wants to thank everyone.

I'm on my way to New England to beat the schnizzle out of some

thieves, then I'm getting my nails done at a swanky place near Boston.

After that, I'm napping and planning an escapade that might shock Scientologists.

And then, beaten with a stick until they succumb.

And then, we shall rejoice.

After that, we'll have a dance and consume some liquor.

When we awake, we shall recount our sins and then beat ourselves with

Acerbis plastic fork-slider-protectors.

Then, we shall make eggs. Some scrambled.

Maybe some hash-browns, who the **** knows ?

there was a guy at highpoint that tried to steal an amatuers bike. he came up to me while i was tearing down camp sunday morning and asked me the quickest way to get out of the camping section. some little dood on a pit bike came up while he was still there and told us it was stolen so we tried to keep the guy there for a minute till security got to us but he tried to leave. a fight ensued until the po po came and it was def one of the crazier scenes that ive seen at highpoint and coming from a 10 year verteran at the event thats saying alot. ive got no room for thieves

We should round up a posse.




I did say that right, didn't I ?


Don't want to be accused of ill-mannerisms.

Or, gingerly chased by a mob of antiquated spinsters, maliciously

slinging obscure slang from a sixteenth-century mosque in suburban

Dearborn. Michigan. Moslem stronghold in America. Shhhhhh.
