Incident Description: 
It was my old bike -- the first one I had since I moved to Chicago a few years ago. It was in pretty beat up condition. It's been sitting in the basement all the way by the back wall where usually nobody goes. I think some polish maintenance guys took it probably thinking it was abandoned. It has very little value but has a lot of sentimental value to me.
