It turns out he's also a fan of driving drunk on the wrong side of the road while speeding into an oncoming scooter and driver. He's going to jail for a long time. Good riddance. </rant>

I'll let my super exotic GT frame go for $400, hang it on the wall and let it appreciate in value!

i don't think he locks his bike like that. it's probably just to keep the bars from flopping around while you're moving the bike.
