Some Scumbag Stole My Bike

[chequita guevara]

Cut right throgh my lock cable. It was a $400 Motobecane Jubilee Trail ($600 now). I paid $300 for it on sale, because it was a year old.

I added a rear view mirror, a back fender (luckily the front fender had fallen off so I still have it), and front and rear LED lighting, plus a fat cushy seat. I had a new Kryptonite lock, too. Cut right through that sucker.

I ride the bike around the airport to the train station and lock it up there.

Now some tinker or crack head has it.

At least you have the front fender.

He didn't steal it, he just took according to his needs.

[SlowwHand]

Yes. He had a fender, too.

[Dis]

that's why it's a good idea to drive around a cheap bike that no one wants. .

I was going to do that with my car. I was going to get a beater car that no one would steal. But I just had to be stupid and buy a flashy car. But it's got a pretty good anti-theft system on it, so hopefully no one steals it.

and I was going to make some remark on communism and stealing, but I'll refrain. .

It's a rat bastard Cuban, I betcha.

Some locks come with a guarantee.

A guarantee that if your bike/car gets stolen (as a result of breaking the lock), they will replace the bike/car.

My father has one such lock for his car. I was quite impressed.

This sucks

Which is why I kept the lock.

Why'd you use a cable lock for such a pricey bike? From what I've heard, the hard-temper pure metal ones are the best protection, you need specialized and noisy tools to break them.

Making light of it, but this does suck.

You mean he had it, but probably already traded it for crack. He probably doesn't even have the crack anymore.

That sucks man.

This happened to Muhammad Ali, and he became heavyweight champion of the world three times.
