Incident Description:
This bike (the Raleigh) was locked only to itself (front wheel to downtube) and hanging in my garage. it is the bike picturred except that it no longer has the rack installed and now it has Nitto Mustache handlebars wrapped in brown bar tape. Thieves managed to open overhead garage door with brute force. Also stolen were a woman's Trek 7200 Multitrack, hunter green color, and a small man's Trek 700 Multitrack, gold color. The gold Trek is very distinguishable because it has a GT BMX stem and Dyno BMX handlebars, but still retaining the original Gripshifters and brake levers. Both Treks will be missing their front wheels as those are still locked to the rack inside of my garage.
