Maverick
What happened
I walked out of my apartment at 417 West Roscoe, and the bike lock was laying on the ground cut through cleanly. There was another mountain bike, silver, laying on the ground, brake cable cut in the back. Seems like the person cut my lock, dropped their bike, grabbed mine and rode away.

- Color
- Green
- Size
- Medium
- Condition
- Very old bike, just two gear settings on each side and they are changed by lifting or pushing a small lever on each side of the bike. The chain is very squeaky, the right brake is fairly worn so it isn't as effective as the left one, and the front tire is slightly bent (you can notice the curvature when you start pedaling). It has a white Eastern Illinois Communal Biking sticker on the frame, as well as a Northern Illinois Bike registry sticker on the frame somewhere, but the EIU one is far more prevalent.
