Yeah, I had my bike stolen when I was at university. It was my only form of transportation (other than legging it) too.

(I didn't even try the police. A lot of bikes got stolen there, and they were not going to spend their time on this sort of crime.)

It wasn't particularly great, just an off-brand mountain bike, but I loved it. I had a more intimate relationship with it than I've had with any car I've ever driven. There's just something about getting a bike set up exactly the way you like it, where it fits you and your style of riding just perfectly.
