Skyline Road Bike
RecoveredWhat happened
I had the bike locked to an iron fence about 10 feet away from my living room window. I was inside side for about an hour. Came outside and my bike was gone. Found some plier grips in the grass by where my bike was locked. I used one of those stupid cheap kryptonite cable locks. I use to use it when I was only locking my bike up for a short time. Lesson learned.
