When I worked in downtown Calgary my old touring bike was left locked to outside racks all day and never got stolen. Probably because it was a deeply uncool bike that no self respecting methhead would want to be seen with, ha ha.
I don't believe in death penalty but bike thieves really test my conviction.
It sounds like the Beaverton.
"Summer is here! Rotate your car tires, dust off the grill, and prepare for the inevitable theft of your bike!"
