wow. This is so weird. Cuz literally, 5 hours ago, I step out of my own apartment and hop on my own bike, only to notice, about 20 feet up, a freestanding standalone unlocked bike propped up against the neighbors building over there.
Oh, and this is not some clearly discarded shit bike. This is a 400$ bike in excellent condition.
So, I took my extra (cable) bike lock, and locked it up in the place where it was, and left a note under the seat.
2 hours later, I come back home, and, yup, there's a response note. From some bitch-cunt who lives in the building and didn't like me locking my not-my-bike to her barred ground-floor windows. So, ok then, Wrong Answer.
I've now posted a craigslist announcement, for anyone having a recently stolen bike of grey-silver color. So far, no replies.
I suppose I could take this semi-stolen bike to the cops, but fuck that shit. It'd be like tossing it into the void. Would probably end up in Guatamala or something.
....
I may be looking at my next summer bike. Nice.
Although I really am giving some person the chance to claim it (for a case of beer).
