Stolen Globe and a new bike

On my first day at work, my bike was stolen (sniff sniff). My 2005 Specialized Globe had a few thousand miles on it and was showing its age. The fenders were beat up and in need of replacement, and the drive train and bottom bracket just about had it, but it was my baby. I guess that's what I got for parking it outside with only a cable lock.

Apparently, I had not learned. A few years later, I parked my wife's Breezer bike outside a high school for night class. After class, the bike was gone, but I did see a snipped lock. D'oh!  Now I stick with U locks.
