I arrived at the X-Sport on 3240 N. Ashland at 9:30 AM on Saturday 9/15/2007 and locked my bike to a big tree in front of X-Sport. I came outside approx 10:45 and discovered it was stolen. The Kryptonite combination cable lock was cut and left wrapped around the tree and obviously the bike was gone. There are many bikes parked\locked in front of this location and a lot of foot traffic in this area. It was a bright and sunny day when this occurred.
