I don't like the lugless Peugeots; just don't look right to me. But I'm off topic.

In your situation, I have done all of the following:


Ridden home while pushing the dumpster bike alongside;

walked home pushing both bikes;

walked away pushing both bikes until I got to a suitable spot to stash the dumpster bike in the bushes; then ridden home and come back in the car;

ridden home, walked back and walked the dumpster bike home;

ridden home carrying part of the dumpster bike, such as a wheel, and come back in the car to get the rest;

ridden home and come back in the car to find the dumpster bike gone;

and probably others.

You did what you did; you lost nothing, and besides, there's no use in second guessing yourself. And someone else took it, so all's well that ends well.
