Hey guys Ill be doing kinda an extended stay in the dmv area I was just wondering if anyone knew of any bikes shops in that area that follow the same ethos as this sub or that you guys just seem to really love. And if you just want to shout out your favorite bike shops where you live I’d love that also !!! And obligatory pic of new bike we built the homie who needed a bigger frame. Vintage gt with a parts bin and a late night :)

Yo dawg we heard you like mail theft and check fraud

On Saturday Sept. 26 I mailed a bill payment to AAA at the drop box in front of the Henrico Government Center on Parham. This morning, I got an alert on my banking app that the same check was negotiated yesterday in the amount of $9,800, which, if you aren't aware, is considerably greater than AAA's annual membership fee.

Intrigued, I looked up the check on my banking app. Lo and behold, some asshole stole the check, altered it to put himself (or someone whose identity he stole) in as payee, and forged the amount boxes. The check was negotiated at some mostly online bank.

Reports filed with postal inspector and Henrico police. The money is supposed to be refunded in a couple days, but I'll have to open a new account and arrange for payment of the various bills I've paid in the meantime from what is clearly now a compromised account. I'll also have to change my direct pay info for various vendors. In other words, a colossal pain in the ass.

Be safe out there, kids. Criminals are everywhere, and in this instance it's hard to imagine that someone in the USPS wasn't responsible. Where's McGruff when I need him?

Food Truck 1115 Is Back.

You may remember that the OG 1115 fried chicken truck was destroyed by a Richmond ambulance a few months ago. Well they are back with a new truck. In either a tent or the truck, they will be at Phish, Folk Festival, and the Seven Stars Festival at the old Lockn site in the upcoming days.

Opinion: Code Refresh is a small step forward | Progress doesn't come easily to Richmond. It never has. But zoning reform would help.
