U locks are bullshit
My bike got stolen tonight. This would be the same bike whose back tire got stolen about a month ago. I parked it outside of 19th Street Bart in Oakland this afternoon at around 4:45. When I got back at around 10, it was gone. There's no evidence that I even left my bike there except that the plastic bag I was using to cover my bike seat in the rain was on the ground.
When I parked my bike, there were three other bikes parked at the same spot. There were also bikes parked across the street. When I got back, every single one of them was gone. I don't know if that means anything, but it was sort of weird.
I have no idea what I'm going to do for transportation now. I don't have the money to buy a nice folding bike. I could replace the bike with some used beater, but I don't really want to have that one get stolen a month from now, you know? Plus I don't want to spend what little money I have on some crappy bike that I don't even like.
Bah. Total bullshit.
