Incident Description:
At Ohio Street beach, at about 2:30 (give or take), I rested the bike on a lampost next to the bike rack nearest to the lakefront bike trail (the bike rack itself was full). I do not know for sure if I locked it, becuase I often forget if I have performed habitual rote actions or not. I don’t remember the act of locking it, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t do it. If I did do it, I would have locked both the frame and the front wheel. When I returned at roughly 3:20, There was no bike lock left.
