Thanks Kenmon for the reply...looks like someone is carrying around bolt cutters...left my helmet behind and took the bike.

In the city those scums probably use bolt cutters to do the 'job',  because bolt cutters allow them to do it quicker and then move on, but not always. I saw that scum who was tried to steal my bike he used the handheld cable wire cutter.

I always thought that the bike thieves are junkies or junkie look-aliked with T-shirt and track-pant. Now I was wrong about that thought, they dressed quite fashionable and fad, just liked the one who tried to steal my bike.

I agree with you, had heaps of beggars asking for money in the brand new sneakers and clean clothes telling me they need money for food. I wouldn't be surprise knowing that those who steal bikes for a living knows not to dress apart and how to get rid of it.
