Recovered! - Trek Marlin 5

My wife’s 2022 Trek Marlin 5 (Azure, or light blue) was stolen from the corner of Spring Garden and South Park (bike racks outside of the public garden) this afternoon between 5 and 6pm. They cut her lock and left the lock along with her helmet.

Only non-stock items are a seat post mounted black Axiom bike rack, caged SPD pedals from the early 2000s and a matching Tacx blue plastic water bottle cage.

I’ll be keeping an eye out on FB Marketplace and Kijiji but please let me know if anyone comes across this bike.

Bummer. Somehow getting a bike stolen seems like a deeper, more personal cut. I’ve heard of a few stories from that block between Curve and the Lord Nelson, not sure if anecdotal or a hotspot.

We had a phone call from the police on Saturday saying they believe they had found our bike at a ‘known location’. My wife went down to the police station this morning and it was her bike. Nothing removed, nothing damaged, nothing altered.

We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. HRP did a great job from our perspective.

The details they’ve given so far are vague but we are trying to get additional information on where it was found.

Sigh. Glad she got it back though!

I was one of the volunteers at Bike Again when you came in asking if we could keep an eye out. That’s amazing that it was found! I’ll pass along the good news.

I think your suggestion was probably accurate and I did do a ‘bike-by’ but was unable to see anything. We are trying to get additional details from HRP in case that would be helpful in the future.
