Bike Thief

So, can you tell me what the above image is missing? That's the game I was playing when I walked up to my bike. Some asshole stole the front wheel off of it. I had some special safety device, where you needed a special tool (sort of an allen wrench with a hole drilled in it) to remove the wheel. The frame and back wheel were locked by a Kryptonite U-lock.

This apparently wasn't good enough, since they managed to take it anyway. So, I reported it to campus security and went to the bike shop to get another wheel and a better lock for the front. If I ever see a guy walking around with my wheel (yeah, right), I'm going to beat the hell out of him until $84 falls out. Not a pleasant surprise when I wanted to go home.

Jailu informed me that I should have at least recreated the below image.
