a riding buddy of mine here in tacloban city moved to manila with his girlfriend. they lived in the girl's house with her family. my friend brought with him his yellow santa cruz super 8 (older model). when they separated, my friend went back here with nothing on hand. his belongings ( clothes, things, and even his bike) were left back with his ex-gf. now, we want the bike back back but the girl refuses to hand it over to him.... my friend is afraid to go back to the girl's place because he's afraid he might get beaten out by the girl's dad. and i tell you, this girl is a psycho and is trouble to us.hehehe we were thinking of letting the lespu know about this one but her father is a lespu man and we think there's no result in doing that. hehehe in this case, what can we do to get the bike? the girl refuses to give to us the bike back and when we ask for evidences if she still have the bike (like a picture or something) , she has nothing to show. we were thinking lso that she might have sold the bike. what can we do about this one? my friend went back here february this year. i'll ask more info where they lived in manila. maybe you'll see this bike. here are the specs: -frame: yellow santa cruz super 8 (old model) with fox vanilla -fork: dnm usd 180 -brakes: shimano deore hydraulic disc brakes 8" front 6" rear -handle bar and stem: amoeba -caliper mounts: amoeba -grips: pedro's diamond vice -drivetrain: shimano lx crank ( old model), shimano road bike rear deraileur( not sure what model it was), deore 9 speed cassette, truvative chain and box guide -wheelset: i forgot what rims he was using and what hubs.. GTS yata yung front hub na thru axle sorry no clear pic of it. but this is the bike... thanks...  add: this ride was used by the late orok of ormoc city during the 2002, 2004 tlbf and used also by macoy larrazabal during the 2006 tlbf.... thanks |

Maybe Jojo Savares can help? If not, one word: TULFO.  This will serve as a lesson. Never mess with a policeman's daughter. And two, before taking a relationship a notch higher, look at your bike, your biking pictures and your belongings. Are you really ready to give these up? ............................................ I don't think so. ... Teka jackass, maganda ba yun chick? May Friendster ba? he he he he |

I feel your friend's pain, it's hard having a gf's father who is in love with the bike too!
Maybe the dad was angry coz they are living under one roof, one room before getting married.
or maybe because he doesnt wear helmet while doing jumps?
Can you put another picture of him with the bike with helmet strapped on?
Muntik ng makalusot sa akin ito ah!Translation= almost got away.

if he's serious to get that bike back, I suggest he gets proper legal advise.
though why did he leave all his stuff after they broke up?

the bike s not worth facing the business end of a 45 (old school) IMHO same with actual highway robbery ... throw the bike at him! "ayan iyo na yan!".............---....-->then run and get your own gun careful not to put holes in your bike when you shoot k heheh |

"ayan iyo na yan!".............---....-->then run and get your own gun careful not to put holes in your bike when you shoot k heheh I totally agree, Alphabolt. It's not easy to get something from someone w/ just a bolo in the house, let alone a cop w/ a gun in his hand. @ Jackass, I'm also sure there's more to the story than what we're reading here. This would be a classic case of he says, she says. Too many missing details on this. Marcs is right, your friend has to get proper legal advice on this matter. Even if PinoyMTBiker members here saw the bike, what are they going to do? Unless it was actually stolen from him, there really is nothing anyone here could do. Sorry, didn't want to be negative. Just giving my opinion based on what was posted here. |

yup, its a domestic problem...even mr. mon tulfo would not want to be involved with issues like that...it's their policy when they're still connected with the company i'm working for.

a case of he said/she said. as is often the case, the truth is somewhere in between. seek counsel... but then again the cost of recovering the bike may far outweigh the current value of the bike. ubos bike mo sa legal fees - abono ka pa. it may be better to write it off.

i think the bike is gone for good...
i wouldnt suggest you sue the girl, complicates the situation more
i wouldnt suggest you talk it out just for the bike, the family would be more angry...might kill you!
girls do come and go, and likewise bikes...
you can buy a better one and might come with a package...a better girl! hmmm...
just say to yourself: thank God we parted ways (the girl & the bike) so that theres room for a better one!!!
go brad!!!

Don't we have a policeman here on PinoyMTBiker... savers, I think his handle is? One call from inside the system to the guy's commanding officer and the bike can probably be liberated.

hehehe
here's the reason why they left for manila and why my friend stayed here in tacloban for good and left his things back at the girl:
when they were still here in tacloban city, my friend's parents didnt accept the girl as there son's gf. hehehe so they stayed in a friend's house and decided to stay in the girl's house in manila together with her family....
then, when my friend and his aunt met there, his aunt bought him a plane ticket to tacloban at a sudden date. he peomised his gf that he'll be back and he would just fix things and issues back here. after a few months, my friend found a new gf ( better than here and prettier.hehehe). his ex gf kept on txting us that she'll commit suicide and everything drama to the max maala ala mo kaya. hehehehe
when i told my friend that why dont you go back there and get your belongings, he said that they might beat him up.... hehehehehehehe
1. is the bike considered stolen or what?
2. what if they have sold the bike already? can we still get it back?
3. if the bike is still with the girl, what legal action can we make to get the bike back?
hehehehehe
thanks

he's at fault because he wasn't man enough to do the proper thing. it seems that the couple went through a lot together, and he dropped her just like that, without even a proper breakup. To think, I assume, the girl and her family accepted him into their home. you broke up improperly so what do you expect?
the other question i have is if he wasn't that committed to her in the first place, why even bother to have lived with her? seems to be not taking his relationship seriously.
that bike is gone

what your friend did to that GF of him is more than all the sta cruzes in the world leaving her with a broken heart. good thing it was only the SC that was held hostage, considering that the dad was a cop ;D so the "new" moral of the story: never leave your bike in your GF's house if your intentions for her are not that serious  |

hmmmm....so now i therefore conclude that it is a "HIT AND RUN".... hehehe.....he hit the girl and run!!!! ;D ;D ;D naman naman....!!!!! (trans: your handsome!) obviously his parent don't like the girl even his aunt (or maybe by the power of his parent told to his anunt to buy ticket in order to him to go back in tacloban.....)... if i were your friend i will just forget the bike same as what he do with his promises/responsibility on the girl...remember that her father is a COP... it may end to another problem (hope for not... if he make any moves to get that bike). Better suggestion is ...tell his parent to buy him a new bike...!!!! in a exchange for his ex... hope the "COP DAD" forget him also!!!! ;D ;D cheers! |

Is the bike considered stolen or what? Nope, the bike is not stolen. He left it there. 2. What if they have sold the bike already? Can we still get it back? If they have sold the bike already, nope, you can't get it back. 3. If the bike is still with the girl, what legal action can we make to get the bike back? If the bike is still with the girl, he can't take any legal action unless he tried to get the bike from them first - which we're pretty sure he wouldn't even try to do. NOW, if I were him, I'd stay away from even thinking of asking for the bike back. I have a sister myself & if that happened to my sister, you're friend's gonna be f@c#ed as hell. I'm serious, he will be f@c#ed as hell. I'm not even a cop so he go figure it out what the dad cop would do to him. |

This thread should'nt have been put up in the first place.
That was very ungentleman of him for treating a girl like that.
I, even if i would be in the same situation, which happend alot of times, will make it a point to talk and end things up before moving to another girl.
It's as easy as saying goodbye and were not meant for each other. People change, things happen for a reason, say goodbye and tell the psycho GF to move on rather than clinging to a one way relationship.
I still feel that your friend bike was taken away coz he doesnt wear helmet during jumps like this. After all been discussed, the pic should be deleted.
Same as Anshwa, I'll be really freakin mad too.
That'll be goodbye to Santa Cruz.

.....ahhh let me think...you said the girl is psycho, why he go with her in the first place....hmmmmm maybe the dad is also psycho....but no..... he is policeman right..hhhhhmm....i think there is a deep reason involve with in?
