Ellen Siebers: How I got my stolen bike back

Dear Editor: My Lemond was stolen downtown and posted two days later on Craigslist. With the help of the police, I was able to get it back and get a few other bikes returned to their owners as well. I thought I?d add some details to Bill Novak?s story on bike theft since I think it is a story that is really relevant to a bike city like Madison. I?ve had lots of friends with bikes stolen, and this information ahead of time would probably have been helpful. My bike was stolen in the middle of the day, on campus near Humanities.
