About 20 minutes
Incident Description:
At about 4:50pm, I locked my bicycle to the metal rail under the steps of the exit of the Kedzie/Lake CTA station. This is the exit onto Lake street on the southern side of the road. I locked my bike with a key locked cable that I fed through the main frame of the bike and through the front tire and my helmet. I left to run through Garfield park for about 20 minutes and came back to find the cable had been cut and was left inside my helmet on the ground near where the bike had been. Strangely enough, there was a blue Denali road bike that was unlocked and essentially left in the same place as my bike. This Denali was not there when I had locked my bike.
