Two riders had a support truck stolen from their hotel room last night.

They may need some help. Anyone up that way?

Update!


← The F350 has been stolen
It’s still stolen!

We pretty much sat on our respective butts all day, disappointingly as all of the SCR riders left this morning.  About midday, I met an RCMP constable in the motel parking lot, and he said that they may have found the truck in some outpost 150 miles north of here…he did think that the vehicle had TN plates, but that it was now a crime scene, and the local law was waiting to see if anyone showed up, and that they may be able to put me and Bill on a Greyhound bus up to this outpost.

All of that fizzled out, and we (me and Bill) have taken turns with cussing (me) and demonstrations of faith (Bill, the younger).  I know that all of you have used up your “green stamps in prayer” for us, and we are still hoping for a meaningful (I want my TRUCK) resolution.

Thanks to everyone.  BTW, this place is so beautiful…sort of makes the human condition (recently witnessed) so incredibly pathetic and grandiose, all at the same time.  Go figure…I may go take some pictures, while I wait for the RCMP.

This is the day to remember the wretchedness brought to us nine years ago.  The remembrance is sufficiently miserable, and no other “dumping” should be allowed.

BUT…

We’ve had no further response from the RCMP. Local time here is ~4:30 AM.  We will try again in a couple of hours.  My sincere hope is that there not have been too many white F350s bearing Tennessee tags stolen and abandoned, and that the constable who I collared yesterday morning in the motel parking lot, was not BSing me.

Thanks, friends, for all of your thoughts.

Bill and Bill, Jr.

His is a '99, what year is your's? 

It is possible that they may get their truck back but may have damage.

PM me your contact info so if he wants to pursue this route.  I didn't offer up your info to protect your privacy.

Rumors are that the truck has been recovered.  That's all I have have heard and it is un-substantiated but from a good source.  No details.
