Helped lead a Group ride of Teenagers down Cal coast, (1986) a couple guys did not lock their bikes , they took the bus home.

this was a rural state park , on the coast..


In past few years , nearby, There were tourists bike thefts in Ft Stevens park Campground, this was local high school guys.



My touring bike now has a frame mounted ring lock and a security chain, past rig I had an armored cable lock hanging from the top tube
in the space above and ahead of water bottles,

i Made up a long cable to secure to bigger things like picnic benches, chain link fences and trees.
