Iron Horse Maverick 1.5 Mountain Bike - Performance Exclusive-23.5-Blue

What happened

I had come back from a ride around 11:30 pm on Tuesday night (9/2/08) and placed my bike as usual in the basement of our building. I only lock it up when I go out and leave the lock without a key on a table next to the bike. The bike was placed in the basement in the back room (not visible unless you go around two corners to the back of the basement) in the dark, behind the locked basement door and the locked gate. I went to go for a ride Friday (9/5/08)around 5:30pm and the bike and u-lock were gone. The gate has been not always closing lately, but the basement has to be opened with a key that everyone in the building has. Thursday night I noticed the basement door open, but I just assumed someone was in there doing laundry. Perhaps that is when someone left it open and someone came in to steal the bike. Only my bike out of all the others in there - others also unlocked.
