2005 Cannondale XR1000 Cyclocross (red). Frame size: 56, disk brakes. Serial number: P104395.
Stolen Sunday 12:00 noon, August 28. Locked (cable lock) near front door of 24hr Fitness (Pearl) 1210 NW Johnson. Brazen theft as doors to gym were propped open, bike locked within 5 feet of doors, cable lock cut and left coiled up as a little present for me. PPB case number filed and opened.

the lock wasnt left coiled as a present -- since it could provide some forensic evidence in the near nil chance that the cops found the tool and the bike and the thief. the way you steal a cable locked bike is -- so i was told when i lost one -- you cut the lock, which is doable with a one handed tool!!-- and then you circle the block or walk away and return and then get on the bike and take off
RecommendedI was at the Freddies in NE on 27th last Monday and on top of the trash can beside the bike parking was another "coiled up as a little present".
I thought most people already knew that CABLE LOCKS DON'T WORK.
Sorry about your bike. :-(
RecommendedThanks for the info guys, and I learned the hard way about cable locks. I did keep the "lock" as a reminder.
In response to the theft, I've bought and carry the heavy duty "New York" style lock by MasterLock. This lock is HEAVY!
