OTOH, it could be a tea partier who is planning on giving it to a billionaire as soon as he can find one.

You do have a chimney, right?

Substitute bikes for pie.
That's not your bike. It's the people's bike. Remember that.

Drop a bit of solder into all the allen bolts so a tool can't be inserted. When you want to work on the bike just heat up the bolt and the solder will run out.
OR, you can use silicon. It won't prevent anyone willing to dig it out but it would let you know for sure if someone is messing with your bike.

You might not want to run up your credit cards in expectation of riches.

fwiw I'm resisting the urge to post anything political in response. Even though I rattled off in another thread. I encourage you guys to do the same. If you want to talk to me about any of the above feel free to pm me.
