How long was the bike locked in this location?: 
Locked up at about 8:15 AM, gone after work around 5:30 PM
Incident Description: 
I rode to work in the morning and locked the bike up with a Kryptonite cable lock threaded through the frame, both wheels, and a bike rack. When I left work the bike and lock were gone without a trace. I saw then that the bike rack was not bolted to the ground. However, the rack was quite heavy and had a long foot on the bottom that would have made removing the bike, as tightly as the cable was wound around it, very difficult. Apparently not difficult enough!
