Hi. I forgot to add all of the specifics because I wrote the post right before school. The bicycle was stolen from my apartment in Oakland, CA. So I am writing from Northern California. My friend Kritsada Prathumma owns the only BMX shop in Thailand and I actually did a documentary on him that you can see on my website. www.baynoise.com the film is also playing in Tokyo at the end of the month if any of you're around. So he tracked down this bike and had it sent to my house. I was helping him by shipping it to him in Thailand. I feel horrible that it was stolen. I've been reaching out to local collectors and plastering the neighborhood with posters. 
thanks for the help. I am hoping with the help of others that I may recover this bicycle and finally get it to where it belongs.

I got the bike back tonight! A neighbor found it on the roof! The box had been opened and things moved around. The shipping label had been torn off as well. 

thanks for all of the support. This bike is headed to Bangkok for a Vintage show on the 20th!

Re: Redline RL 20 White STOLEN Nov. 6th
Great story. I know that is an old thief trick. When they steal something but they don't know who the owner is they do risk walking around carrying /riding the stolen item so they stash it close by. Then they return later to pick it up.
When a bike is stolen from a yard or house look in trash cans and weeds right away. This has happened with one of my bikes.

What was your "neighbor" doing on the roof? Possibly fabricating a story to cover for his kid who (after being caught red-handed) confessed to the crime over dinner that night? Just sayin.
