Good
That's funnier than anything that's happened on his radio show
Not the same bike!
In fact, his bike looks to be chained to the meter (i think) in the background.
One Mystery Solved
Karson's Twitter acct. has a picture of a "junker" that the thief left behind when he swiped the bike. That junker bike is the one in the surveillance photo. Presumably, the surveillance pic is from before he stole the orange bike.
What? So now thieves are
What? So now thieves are leaving bikes behind? Like a forced bike swap?
Hubway for Thieves
It's like a thief's version of Hubway.
Is it just me?
Or does the bike with the guy on it look like a completely different color to the bike in the other pictures?
Possible reason
Maybe he was shown on video taking more than one bike and these were the clearest pictures? Also, the resolution is crappy, maybe the color balance is too.
It is entirely possible to
It is entirely possible to have low resolution w/o messing with the color balance- or at least have low res with not that much color difference. The bike with the guy on it looks like it is red and black... no orange bike, in my experience, would end up looking like that unless you changed colors in an editing program.
Ya
And maybe the perp is actually a White female.
Aha
Per Twitter, Karson's bike is in the background of this pic. The thief stole Karson's bike and left his red one behind.
On the Next....
On the Next "Can't beat Kennedy"..
Which radio host had his bike stolen at Fenway?
That'll probably be the hardest question they ask.
not a shocker
Yep, put expensive stuff on the street and it might get stolen. Sucks, but that's life in the big city.
Bike Thief
Yes, the thief is shown riding his bike because that was the closest he was to the camera at Fenway Park. The picture is a copy of a copy, so the quality sucks. I hope to have video soon. He was nice enough to leave me his bike.
That's too bad. Shoulda got
That's too bad. Shoulda got an orange K ulock. They're the best. Woulda matched his paint, too!
How did he get the
How did he get the surveillance photo?
Once Fenway streets are privatized this will not happen
Hawkers and security will prevent such larceny.
