Incident Description:
Mine and my boyfriend's beach cruisers were chained and locked to a wooden beam that's part of a staircase in our fenced back yard. Boyfriend rode his bike to/from work on Monday and both bikes were gone Tuesday morning when he went to leave for work. I'm guessing someone (more than one) hopped the fence, cut the lock and took off.
The only reason I thought to post this is because we have beach cruisers in Chicago (we just moved here), which aren't that common.
