Incident Description: 
was at Bar Louie on Polk in Lrinters Row for a drink after Chase Corporate Challenge race. Locked bike to designated area, through front wheel and frame with a small U-Lock (2 years old). Exited bar less than two hours later and bike was gone but lock on ground. Front tire was still quick release so I'll bet they released the wheel and cut the spokes which are a relatively cheap fix for reselling to take the wheel.
