what silliness. i have a locked basement storage room at my place of employment where i am allowed to stash my bike. it has been there every single time i have returned for years now.
the best lock is to get your bike off of the street.
and if worse comes to worst, my bikes are covered by my home owners insurance policy, so it's not like the universe would implode or anything were something bad to happen to one of them. i would hate to be so phobic of potentially losing a bicycle that i would be too scared to ride one. the world can be a scary, risky place, but life has to be lived.
