80's Raleigh Capri
What happened
Locked bike in front of the Depaul library Monday. Finished studying, walked out smiling with helmet in hand and looked at the empty bike rack then left...then right..."mmm, that's funny, I thought I put it there." After the moment of bewilderment, was struck with a punch to the gut as I realized it was gone... It was a cable lock with a masterlock combo. I new it wasn't the best lock which is why I don't leave it outside normally...pretty sure someone had bolt cutters and swiped the bike after a quick snip. bummer
