Soma Mixte Buena Vista Old Gold with Drum Brakes
What happened
I locked my wheel to my frame and left my bike inside two locked doors in the stairwell of our apartment overnight. Last time I saw my bike was ~6pm last night. My housemate locked her bike to my bike via our frames. Both bikes were stolen with locks still attached and locked together, presumably to cut the locks off elsewhere. Front door was left propped open, no idea how they got in.
