UFC fighter Nick Diaz claims he lost tri-bike worth US$50,000 to thieves

THEY stole from the wrong guy.

Mixed martial artist Nick Diaz posted on Tuesday that he lost his US$50,000 tri-bike to thieves.

The UFC fighter posted a photo of the black Specialized bike that appears to be an S-Works Shiv on Instagram and Twitter with a very angry message.

Diaz directed his tweet to the official Specialized Twitter indicating he needed a new bike.

The 32-year old jiu-jitsu specialist regularly competes in triathlons, with the XTERRA Lake Tahoe as his favorite event. In 2011, he placed 831^st in the USA national triathlon rankings in the 25-29 age group.
