Way to go John and Dan!

Story is on Trials Central - Basically, these guys helped get a stolen bike back to the proper owner in the UK. Nice Job!

Short version....

A while ago a guy from England posted that his bikes were stolen out of his garage. One was a red 09 GG.

10 months later another TC member posted an Ebay find, a beat up 09 GG. Dan, with his photographic memory, linked the origional post about the stolen bike into that thread and commented on the irony. I posted in that thread that someone should call the guy because the person who posted the stolen bike just signed up and had only one post and that was 10 months ago. I stewed on it a while and decided to call myself. I forgot that we are like 6 hrs behind and called the guy at 3:30 in the am. Good thing for answering machines.

Dan deserves the credit..he caught the irony between the 2 posts. I missed that.

Was the bike in the UK or over here?
