Garage or enclosed parking area.
How long was the bike locked in this location?:
The bike was stored in our garage unlocked. Left in our garage over the summer months and stored in basement during the winter.
Incident Description:
Our garage must have been left open around dusk and the bike was unlocked in the garage. We normally park our truck in the garage at night, but we were getting ready to go camping and our truck was in the drive as we loaded it for our trip or the other possibility was that it happened while my wife had the truck at her place of work. With the truck out of the garage this would have made it easier for the person to gain access to the bike. The bike was behind other bikes in the garage so the person specifically targeted the men's bike.
