Bike vandalism

Owen and I biked to school on Friday and then he went home with a friend. We ended up forgetting about his bike and left it at school all weekend, locked to the bike rack. When we got to school this morning someone had damaged it. I took it to the bike shop this afternoon and they thought someone must have deliberately stomped on it. It's a mountain bike so the wheels and tires are very sturdy but the front wheel was so bent it wouldn't roll (I had to carry it to the car from behind the school, and then into the shop from parking downtown - kind of a heavy load), and the front brake was totally messed up. It will cost us $50 to fix. SIGH! I guess we learned a tough lesson.

Meanwhile, there may be a state budget passing tonight - Dan is expecting to be late.
