Unfortunately, I've had more bikes stolen than most, from my 5spd Huffy BMX in 5th grade, to a $3800 Fat City Yo Eddy and an $1800 Cannondale M800 back in the early '90s back in college. Still, I'm not at all interested in lugging around pounds worth of bulky locks. I carry insurance, and am pretty confident in my resourcefulness, so as in the past, stolen bikes get replaced. I do miss my Yo, though; it had metallic plum paint and I did custom polishing and gold anodizing on bars, cranks, seat post, and rims...it was dope looking, and I made a lot a friends on that bike from folks who stopped on the trail to pay a compliment!
