Schwinn Traveler Road Bike
What happened
Locked my bike to the rack near the alley between the Belmont EL Station and Berlin near Belmont and Sheffield and went to work. Came back and bike and lock were gone; thought my girlfriend was playing a trick on me! The bike is missing its one rear brake pad and the other is turned outward; frame is bent and I was too cheap to fix the rears (considering it got stolen, I consider this a good decision)! The picture above is of a 1974 Schwinn Continental that I found on Google images; however, it looks EXACTLY like my Schwinn Traveler in both color and appearance. There's plastic grocery bag tied to the seat (for rainy days) and, if the cable lock is still even on the bike, it was wrapped around the frame near the handlebars.
