I left the bike in the same place I have been for months. Noticed it was gone when I was out getting lunch. It had only been there for 3 hours or so. I locked the back wheel and frame to the pole and another lock through my front wheel and frame. The lock was sliced through, like using an angular grinder, not bolt cutters or a hacksaw. There is usually a lot of foot traffic there, so it happened quick. They were nice enough to leave the lock... The front lock was nowhere to be seen, so they probably didn't ride off with it.
