What's the point of removing the skewers? Just so that if they do snag the wheel, they still can't just ride away or something? Interesting.

Merton, thanks for the link to lockit.com. I've wanted to get an abus, but you just can't find them here.

I wasn't riding my folding bike that day- I was riding my DeRosa. I guess the good news in all this is that at least they didn't get the WHOLE bike. That would have been terrible.

I'm going to head to Georgetown Law to teach this afternoon- ONLY after they guarantee that I can take the bike with me into the building and keep it with me at all times. I've already tried using their inadequate security, and from now on, when I'm in that hell hole, if I don't have the bike within 10 feet of me, I'm not going there. I don't care how inconvenient it is- they need to figure this **** out now before I head back there to teach one more class. I lost a lot of money going there yesterday. And they said they wouldn't compensate me- they said I park my bike there at my own risk. So no hope of retribution at all.

I'm going to speak to the law students. Surely someone saw something.

Then to top it all off, my whole (brand new) frickin blinkie for my rear light fell off my damn bike when I was riding in, and of course, I didn't know until I got to work. **** **** ****! So now, I have to worry about replacing blinkies and rear wheels. *sigh* I just can't win.
