Incident Description:
On October 27th, sometime between 3am and 1pm, someone stole my bike. The bike was securely locked to a tall road sign post with a Bontrager U-Lock and cable around both wheels outside of 1110 N California Ave. It appears the perpetrator(s) wheeled a garbage bin over, stood atop it, removed the sign from the post, and lifted the locked bike off of the post. Given the U-Lock and cable wrapped around the wheels, they would've had to have carried the bike away. The bike is unrideable unless the lock is cut.
Attached to the bike was my black helmet, my water bottle, my orange cargo net, and various bike accessories such as lights, fenders, etc.
