Basic Bike Info

Bicycle Type: 
Road Bike
Serial No.: 
21040987296
Size: 
27 inch

Yellow
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features: 
The bike had down tube shifters and a vetta white seat. The bike had some rust around the top and bottom of the forks. There were also some scratches on the yellow paint of the frame. The Cannondale decals were red. The grip tape on the bars was a funky sea foam green and the tape was hanging off the bars. The tires were 1 3/4" with a typical yellow sidewall (not the real skinny type). (Note: I couldn't find a picture so I found one on the web. My bike looked like the photo except for the seat, which was white and the grip tape, which was seafoam green)

Incident Description: 
The bike was inside garage and I last remember locking it around 10 pm. (I am not totally sure if one of my family members might have accessed the garage and left it open.) I saw the back gate of my yard and garage door at around 8am. This seemed unusual to me and found that the bike (in addition to 3 others--Huffy Calais White; Huffy Calais Black; K2 Mountain Bike Red) where gone.
