bike stolen again???
So.. I have no idea why the hell [u]ANYONE[/U would want to steal my bike, i mean seriously it was the oldest piece of sh!t ever and the bike handles were SEVERELY misaligned with the tires. I was just wondering if it's actually possible that the campus security took it away for some odd reason? I did park it on campus over the weekend. Is there such thing as them confiscating your bike?

Bike confiscation? Highly doubt it.

It's a sign from the heavens to buy a new bike and not lug around a shit one

One time i wish that when some one stole a bike they would leave clues so that one day you could find your bike, but after solving countless riddles and puzzles. That would be bad ass, though a bit time consuming

I don't get it... stolen with a lock, or stolen without a lock?

Time to start locking it up, Jimmy. =[

People will steal anything. Fact-o-life!

If anyone is really out to steal a bike they will succeed. The best deterrent is to have a really crappy bike.

Oh, that was your bike?

I used it to get to the other side of campus. I left it laying outside of ITB. It was gone after lecture, so I just took someone else's shitty back and rode back home.

You should try it sometimes.

Clearly.

(most people (on campus) who would or do steal bikes do so because the opportunity arose not because they were out walking around with one of those with the intention of stealing a bike.

like the saying goes, a locked door only keeps honest folk out)

Campus security only takes bikes in the summer.

I've left my brand new bike lockless near the student centre before, nobody stole it

Fact: any bike thats visibly unlocked will be stolen eventually.
