Seriously? Two bikes is your locking strategy? You could be more reasonable by riding a not-too-expensive non-crappy bike that you actually enjoy riding, and lock it properly. I take it you are not a city rider, because in the city you can't take your bike into most buildings. And if you are not in a city, why are you so worried about theft?
