I guess I forgot to reply to this:
The bike wasn't unlocked. I didn't have the alarm system installed yet because I was getting married and figured I'd wait until I clear that expense.
The day after I got married, between 11pm and 1am when my friends were leaving my spot, the bike was gone. I wasn't further than 20 yards away! The wheel was locked, but we all should know that means nothing to a thieves with a van.
The funny thing is the fact that the police officer's reply to my friend in regards to chances we'd get the bike back. I had to correct the police officer that there was next to no chance that I'd get the bike back. He said that it would most likely be recovered! tsk tsk!!!
