Incident Description:
The bike was in a storage room in our condominium building along with 10 other bikes that were not disturbed. The thief would have had to get through a locked gate and a locked front door to get in. Foolishly, I thought it was secure enough that I didn't need to lock the bike itself up as well.
I got it a little early as a birthday gift -- and it was already stolen before my birthday.
