My wheel got nicked!

I chained my nice Ridgeback bike yesterday by the O2 centre in Finchley Road. The place happens to be one of the most celebrated spots to steal bikes parts in the whole NW of London. I forgot that and also that I had to chain not only my rear wheel, but my front one too.

Also, the wheel has this quick release mechanism. You just pull the level and the wheel gets loose, ready to take away. And away it had gone by the time I returned to my bike, 30 minutes after I had left it.
