I am always crime conscience.. My lock is on the bike at all times.. If there is not something to lock the bike to, I don't patronize the place... So far, no attempts at bike theft. But, I've been mugged twice. Once with a knife at the back of my neck and the other time.. a guy chasing me down a busy street with a section of pipe.. Both of those attacks in the middle of the day..Actually the pipe event was only an attempt, ,because I outran the guy....He looked like a street person.....
... Because a restaurant has 6 customers is not cause to feel safe. Too many reports out there of armed robberies of restaurants even with many customers present. In fact, once I missed an armed robbery at a pizza joint by less than half an hour..
