Bikes: 2007 Gary Fisher Cronus (now stolen!)

I guess I'll be adding a chain to the mix. Good thing my bike is light...
I think I will go down the New York Fahgettaboudit route, add another u-lock and find a better spot for the bike - all of this is ok, but I don't think I will ride the (new) fisher to work anymore unless I can park it by my desk!
