Incident Description:
My bike was locked to a chain-linked fence in the backyard of my apartment with a U-lock. The fence was cut around my lock and my bike and lock are both missing. I've locked it here daily for almost 2 years, typically I lock it to the fence and the fence post but I was lazy through the winter was only using the fence itself. It is a great bike and my only mode of transportation. It is really dirty and beat up right now because I haven't tuned it up since winter riding. Please, if you see my bike, let me know.
