Incident Description:
My bike was locked to the deck support for our three story deck (12x12 wooden support) it was locating inside of our locking 8ft tall fence and locked to the support, the 3/4" thick cable lock was defeated and taken with the bike. No other things were stolen, another bike was sitting next to it, untouched. This should be a unique bike in that it has the frame for an offroad bike with road tires on it, the Marin Alpine Trail comes standard with wide off-road tires. Scumbag thief must have used garbage cans in the alley to jump the back gate.
