Schwinn Collegiate

What happened

Someone has had it in for my bike! Twice in two weeks, someone mangled my cable lock, as if they tried to break it from either end. I bought a thicker cable lock, and hadn't had any incidents in over a week (in retrospect, I clearly should have upgraded to a U-lock). Yesterday I rode it, and locked it as usual (through the wheel and the frame) to my building's metal fence. This morning, I went outside to find my bike and the lock gone.
