Where do all the front wheels go?
 
Seriously, I've always wondered who wants all those front mtn bike wheels from my campus. Are they after scrap metal?

That's a good question.

Back to those who had them stolen/lost/damaged.

Note to self: OP is dangerously close to deducing my plan to conquer world using giant robots made from bike wheels. May need to be silenced.

Some wheels go inside with their owners.

Only the first front wheel was stolen. Everyone else is just trying to get theirs back.

It's the same people that sneak into laundromats and swipe one sock from every load. The purpose: to screw with your head and make you crazy wondering where they all went.

It's funny, just today I was standing in my garage, thinking, "Where did all these wheels come from?" Somehow I have four bikes and at least sixteen wheels.

I can only conclude they migrate from nearby college campuses to my garage, of their own accord.

i found no use in stealing front wheels but nothing is short of fun using a truck to rip a bike off a pole that says no bicycle parking
