My Trek Triathlon bike was stolen OUT OF MY GARAGE while I was bringing in Christmas boxes. I couldn't believe it.
had a bike shipped to a guy get stolen this vacation week.. >:/
it was Insured and it was spose to be Sign for Delivery, but the Fedex delivery idiot left it on the door step when he was away with family over the weekend and someone decided they wanted it :x it came early which would have been a good thing but no one was there to sign..
Which means it should have been taken back to the store where it could be picked up when ever convent for the guy it was going to..
i mean come on dilweeds.. it was a Specialized in a SPECIALIZED box! you gotta know its worth something if it was insured for $200 even :x
first time i use Fedex and its a huge Flunk.. not too happy now.. :!:

So far I've only had one theft attempt on my shed, I put 9 arrows through the side of the shed with a compound bow... Haven't had a problem since. I have since upgraded my security to a .380 auto, an axe, two bicycle sprockets welded to seat posts made into axes, and many other sharp and shiny/ blunt objects :mrgreen:
A member posted from Davidson, NC that they don't need to lock bikes there. My neighborhood is the same way but I lock my bikes anyway. I put too much dinero into my bikes to leave them unsecured.
My parents always laugh at me for locking my bikes up. They say that of all the things somebody would wan't to steal around the house it wouldn't be a bunch of old bikes. But I don't trust it around here, and you can't be too careful. I have a lot of money in my bikes and I know i'd be devastated if some were stolen. People these days..

I build stuff.
I had a dream last night that someone stole my monkey bike and I chased them down and got it back. :mrgreen:
Bike theft is normally a crime of convenience, make it just "slightly" harder and thieves will likely move to an easier target.
All the talk we've had around here about locks, let me just say any lock is better than no lock.
