Stealing is a bad thing all around, but stealing a custom bike, that's
just asking for instant karma in the form of a serious wreck....  Same

The gods don't take kindly to that stuff.   Then again it might be
another form of natural selection!

He'd broken in to steal a custom bike on display and the kicker here is that I had stayed after hours on a recent Saturday helping him with parts he "had to have" in order to be ready for some event.  Glad you got off so lightly.
