Scattante R-330 Road Bike
What happened
I biked to meet friends for dinner in Wrigleyville and u-locked up to a city sign pole that was bolted to a base (around 8 pm 12/29) in front of Chen's Chinese and Sushi. My friends and I then cabbed it the rest of the night and I decided I'd pick up my bike the next day. The following day, after I got off work, I went to pick it up and it was gone (around 4 pm 12/30). I filed a police report, posted on facebook, circulated an email, and posted to the chain link. Later on, I went back to the scene and saw that the pole I locked to was de-bolted, and saw the bolts lying in the gutter. I called city services to rebolt the pole and have now scene several unbolted poles throughout the city. Lesson learned.
