Basic Bike Info
Bicycle Type:
Road Bike

regular
Color:
blue
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features:
This bike was pretty old and a little rusty; the cover material was peeling off the gel seat. There's a Cornell University bike registration sticker on the frame. It has a rear bike rack, and instead of panniers I'd wired a section of those buildable storage compartments - a white wire-grid flat rectangle about a foot square.

Incident Description:
I locked my bike to the bike rack along Monroe Ave in Millennium Park by the spitting fountains and went to work. When I came back out at 12:30, the bike was gone and there was another bike locked in the same place. My bike is pretty old and crappy - it's an old Randor, and there's not many of those around anymore - and I don't know why anyone would want to steal it!
