Cross Country Trip – Day 17

5 April 2018

It’s 2 am and I just finished with the Ventura Police Department.  They knocked on my door at 1:30 am to inform me my bike had been stolen off the back of the jeep.  The motel management saw someone on the video struggling for 10 minutes to get the bike off the carrier and called police.  There’s no word as to why the police didn’t get here in time to catch the thief or why it may have taken management too long to call, but as you can guess, I’m cancelling my reservation here on my return from the Channel Islands and looking for another hotel.

The police stated all the hotels along Thompson (Highway 101 Business, aka Ventura Freeway) are subject to thieves due to the drug problem in the area. The police were very courteous and explained someone was already out looking for the bike, but they were not encouraging.

I usually bring the bike into the hotel room with me when I travel, but I didn’t this time because of a series of steps I would have had to carry the bike.  That’ll teach me.  They’ll notify me of any success in finding the bike but I don’t have much hope.

I had a bad feeling about the motel and should have turned around but I figured it was for only one night and what harm it could do.  I now know.

The bike was a Fuji Traverse and was around $700 when new (it’s over a year old).  Whoever stole it now has a very nice bike.

After 34 years in the classroom and lab teaching biology, I'm ready to get back to traveling and camping and hiking. It's been too long of a break. I miss the outdoors and you can follow my wanderings on this blog.

  1. That is terrible about the bike. Hope the Channel Islands are terrific. Good choice to find a different hotel when you return.

    1. I think this is the nicest hotel room I’ve stayed in. It’s also expensive but I didn’t have much choice short notice. Spring break is in full season out there and there are people everywhere. I was lucky to get a room. Now the a/c at the house is on the kaput. Hope it was working for you when you were there. John Bell is going to call about it and see if a tech can come in and do a simple fix. Otherwise, it might mean a new unit. When it rains, it pours.
