Basic Bike Info

Bicycle Type: 
Cruiser / Comfort Bike

Small (I'm 5'4")
Color: 
Yellow
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features: 
This bike is a vintage model from the 70's. It's got a little rust and is missing its shift lever/shifter cable, so it's always stuck in third gear. I'm honestly surprised anyone bothered to steal it!

Incident Description: 
The bike racks in front of my office were full by the time I got to work, so I locked by bike to a street sign further down, out of sight of the office entrance. There are some loading docks back there and it's a little more secluded. When I came out at the end of the day, the bike and lock were gone.
