My black Cannondale was stolen from my locked entryway. The thief pried open one of the windows during the night and took only the bike (he must have known I kept it there). He then unlocked the door from the inside and left it standing wide open. I found it missing in the morning. (The image is a still from a movie I made I would never actually lock it like that). The bike was a gift so I don't have the serial number. Any tips would be much appreciated.
