Ok. that's hilarious and quite sad. I'd like to think that I would confront someone who was stealing a bike, but honestly I'm a fairly petite woman and depending upon the physique of the crook, I might not feel entirely at ease with speaking up.
But really... how many people use a chain that could so easily be broken by bolt cutters? 2 methods of locking up my bike at any given time- make it look like a junky bike and park it next to the pretty, shiney, poorly locked more expensive ones. And as far away from parking lots and car-accessible streets as possible. I haven't had any issues *yet.*
fhqwhgads - that photo is HILARIOUS. now was that a setup, or something you happend by?
