All good advice! As a cyclist I’d recommend living by the rule of N +1 (or 2,3,4). You can do everything correctly and still get your bike stolen so make sure you have a backup cause these thieves are determined little fuckers. Also commute bike should be used and cost <$500. If your bike costs more than $1k (or whatever currency you use) then someone’s gonna try to steal it. Doesn’t matter if it’s a work garage or apartment garage, someone’s gonna try to steal it. My rule of thumb, bring it inside. You can hang it on the wall like the piece of art it is and rest assured these thieves will have a harder time trying to steal it.
