Incident Description:
My friend and I rode bikes to the rock-n-roll race in grant park. I always ride to big races and lock my bike in front at the Art Institute of Chicago. There are usually several other people who do the same, however this time when I returned there was only one bike there when I returned. I think someone took all the bikes in this area at once. I left the bike at 5:30am and locked properly and when I returned at 11am it was gone. I will never lock my bike there again.
