Incident Description:
I locked my bike to the front racks at East Bank Club. I came out maybe 6 hours later and the bike was gone. The lock was left. I have absolutely no idea how they got it out, but it is a high trafficked area and it was in broad daylight. It was by no means the "best" bike there and I had a Kryptonite lock on. All I can imagine is that they quickly got through the wheel and disassembled the bike while looking like they belonged in the area. I will offer a substantial reward if anyone can recover it!
