• so last thursday I come out of the office at about 5.20pm and imagine my surprise when I see my garmin 810 edge sitting on the mount on my handlebars on the bike i'd left locked up outside 2 busy mini-supermarkets in the middle of clerkenwell since 7.30am.

    a) I specifically remember thinking at least 4 times while I was locking up "must grab my garmin once i've stuck my keys in my pocket again" and also clearly recall giving the bike a "thorough" look over to make sure it was properly secured and all was as it should be.

    b) how in the fucking flippity fuck , fucking, FUCK was it still there at the end of the day?!

    I can see the rack from about 75yds away through the window of our 2nd floor office and through the course of the day i'd noticed a handful of bikes had locked up next to it throughout the day.

    lucky lucky boy.

  • Good to hear. I once left my bike unlocked outside college for an entire very long day. I don't know why, I was probably distracted when I 'locked' it up. The lock was even in its holder on the frame. Admittedly, it wasn't the most attractive bike, but still. I got out quite late in the evening and was absolutely mortified to realise, but it was still there.
