A West Side bicyclist who outfitted his bike for winter riding is bikeless today after someone stole the $3,850 two-wheeler, police reported.

Madison police said in a news release that the bike was reported stolen from a secure basement area in a South Midvale Boulevard apartment building.

"He had the Trek fat tire bicycle outfitted for winter riding, but now he can't ride," said police spokesman Joel DeSpain.

The bicycle was stolen sometime Monday or Tuesday. It has Bar Mitts on the handle bars, quartz pedals and a mud guard made from a milk jug.

Anyone with information about the theft is asked to call Crime Stoppers, 266-6014.
