New--bought in Spring 2009, road on RAGBRAI, then it was stolen back in Chicago. I added an aluminum rack, taken from my REI Novara Fusion, and two water cages (I think one was black and one was white). I took off the clips so the pedals were weird when it was stolen.

Incident Description:
The thief(thieves) either got our garage door code, or entered into our back yard and entered the garage via the service door. They stole 3 bikes: my Satellite (of Love), my son's little Redline (20 inch maybe, red with flames, with the addition of a green gel bell), and a 2007ish man's Bianci Cortina. They left the garage door open, which the police came by and closed. The police had been called by multiple neighbors. One neighbor told us of a kid seen loitering near our garage and is "99.9% sure" this kid was the thief.
