Maybe the front tire skewer is loose and there's a camera pointed at the whole scene.

I suppose he could carry around a chain & padlock but that would sort of defeat the purpose I suppose ...

My neighbor commutes, does errands, visits friends etc. on a Cervelo. At least he carries a U-lock, but I still think he's crazy.

hey justin,

you should've taken a pic and posted it in the Road Bike section of this forum. That would've gone-over really well...

I'm so conflicted. That link leads to the Road forum, yet it's completely non-awful. WTF? Up is down, black is white, plastic is steel! AHHH
