A bike thief speaks....

[armystrong]

Got this off another forum. It's basically a Q&A thread with a former bike thief. Its a long read but includes some interesting and very useful info. If this is a repost...my apologies.

Thoughts?

I read the whole posting - took a while, but there is great information from an insider of a world that few of us know about. Certainly has made me rethink the security of my bike and where I park it.

Me too - read the whole thing. This is something that concerns me on a daily basis. I often think "OH S*** my bike is gone!" then realize its behind a car.

Definitely a lot lot lot of good info in there. Thanks for the share.

Yeah it was posted up a couple days back. the other thread has one other link in it. Took a while to read it all, but I want a rear disc lock and a chain really back right now.

LOL the dude should have gone to one of the manufacturing companies and became one of there spokesmen. Cause as far as I see it he is going to increase sales.:BLAA: (not serious, though what he is doing is helpful. There would be too many people wanting to punch him in the face)
