Ok, I've watched videos on youtube and read sheldon's site about how to lock a bike. They all seem to presuppose you live in a wonderful area that has bike racks to lock them to. Literally, in my whole town of 20,000 - I can't think of seeing one bike rack - ever. Most of the time I use a cable lock that stretches 6 feet to lock to things like tall street signs, or telephone poles, or oddly shaped things like benches in front of grocery stores (I don't block the bench).


So what would be a good strategy to lock a bike in a town without bike racks. Thanks for helping.
