Leave your pack outside the house so a bear runs off with the scumbag...

But in all seriousness, sorry to hear about your E-bike being stolen, Richard. Hope they find him and you get it back.

If you are able to grab aerial updates on different sites that would be excellent!

With a view like that the insurance company will deny the claim without a doubt! "Sorry Richard, but we simply can't afford to pay out your claim when your bike includes Mt. Whitney and a decent chunk of the surrounding area..."


Sorry to hear about your bike! I thought the videos you posted riding up to the Portal Store were pretty awesome.

They're what reminded me to actually make an account here despite "creeping" on the posts since 2023 :p

Like the other replies, I'm sorry to hear about the theft an have plenty of gas to throw on the fire but that won't help.

I also ride a bicycle, a relatively cheap one because I have planned ahead for the possible theft, what would I do if I'm there, or not, etc... The reason I mention this is that in the cycling community there is a list where you can report your bike stolen and often they are recovered. They did actually locate a person of interest that does things like act as a broker for the thieves to take stolen bikes to. If the bikes are inexpensive enough they resell them locally. If they're in the 5-15k range they'll advertise them out of the country to avoid possible detection by the victim and/or LE and if there's interest they'll transport them to whatever locality where there are buyers, so long as the economics make sense. I suspect the same holds for any stolen item: an e-bike, firearms, etc.

The smart and imaginative criminals are very creative. Anyways it might be worth your time to try to locate a similar list where stolen e-bike information is aggregated. I don't see it being a privacy issue for you nor exposing you to more security risk. Hope this helps.
