My beautiful and superb, custom-build, Specialized Fatboy Comp Carbon was stolen last Saturday. I rode that bicycle every day, fettled every nut and bolt on it. It was completely, totally, exactly fitted to me and my riding. And it is totally gone ... I have it on credible word that it was chopped within the day it was stolen, it doesn't exist any more.

The theft was like ripping a piece of my heart out. 🙁 I have to move on.

I'm building a new bike, this time based on a Salsa Beargrease frame set. The frame set arrived at the build shop on Thursday and I went to check it.

All the parts except for the carbon wheels will be in and the build will happen this week. I will fit my original Fatboy wheels until the new custom wheels arrive, hopefully be riding again next weekend.

I took an isolation ride on my bicycle for exercise today. Strange to be riding and see so few people around, so little traffic.

I had the Polaroid SLR670x with me. As I passed Levi's Stadium, I stopped to snap a couple of photos of my new bicycle with the stadium as backdrop.
