Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features:
A totally sexy bike, this Fuji track bike had a solid green paint job on it, with no logos on the frame. It does have a Fuji logo on the handle bar stem. It had bright white walls on the wheels, and a white leather saddle with a gold plate on the back of it. I dearly miss it.

Incident Description:
I rode the bike to the Ashland stop of the Green Line. I locked the bike to the bike rack immediately next to the bus stop for the Southbound Ashland bus (#9 and X9), and right in front of The Women's Treatment Center, a spot where there is alot of pedestrian traffic during the day.
It was taken at some point when I was at work. When I returned to retrieve the bike after work, the lock had been cut through and left behind.
