Just curious, can you share the details of how the bicycle was stolen? This may help some of us avoid the same situation. For example, was it locked? Etc.
... but I can not say with 100% certainty. The lock was on, but whether I adjusted the four digits on the lock is something I'm not sure about. Then again, the thief may have just had cutters and chopped the wire.
My advice and lesson: Don't lock your bike in a bad neighborhood of a city (as I did in Phoenix).

my honest opinion, Toni....

Probably not.
It's much too smart and elusive to be caught with the present technology we use. I have my own beliefs of what this creature may possibly be, and they don't particularly coincide with most of the team members ideas. It's amusing and also dismaying to see the local good ol' boys in TX, spending all this time and money trying to catch BF. They leave with pain and frustration for not catching it on an expedition. My local friend and team member who is a Navajo Indian and 70 years old, agrees with me what we might think it actually is. After many years of checking this out, we both think it may be of paranormal origin. The research team doesn't want to include that in their studies, even though they witnessed a light phenomena that floated above our campsite in the Lukachukai Mts of NE Arizona.
When the Research team came here to this area in fall 2007, we saw two floating balls of light intelligently passing through a pine forest. I read about this phenomenon, and are loosely mentioned as "Ghost Lights". BF activity is often associated with the viewing of these lights too.
Think i've been blessed with no nightmares or any scary thoughts about that creature. I've waken up with possible BF screams coming from a valley nearby this home, and at our research camp in TX at 6am this past March. The screams here were frightening, sounding like the shriek of a woman in mortal distress. The yells-whooping sounds and tree knocking in Texas were not bad at all. Sort of entertaining, while staring at the ceiling of my tent.
During the previous night of vocalizations, something very fast rubbed against the side of my tent. Two other campers in their tents reported the exact occurance as well. We were spaced about 20 feet apart, but no footprints appeared in the damp earth. Very strange... Couldn't readily explain what did that, but was very close to my head when it passed by, and occured during a very heavy gust of wind. It appeared to be a deliberate act of causing alarm, but no signs of the cause other than hearing our tents being touched rapidly. Also while on night patrol, several of us had a possible sighting of movement during a heavy gust of wind as well. My laser-pointing IR heat detector responded to something in the woods with heat, and at the exact moment most of us detected a quick-moving object on the left corner of our eyes. One of the team members said they saw something running on two legs. I detected movement and a heat reading, but couldn't confirm anything more in the almost pitch-black darkness.

I liked that bit about the waitress flirting with you and you wondering what it was about the ride that made you attractive to women. I think it could be the following: Being passionate about something, taking risks, being strong and the tights.
