Spotted in Birmingham...

I'm sure he would have, if it would fit.

Besides, it's a shite wheel anyway. Anyone who wants it is welcome to it. Its braking surface is worn into a concave shape and will soon crumble under the 120psi pressure exerted on it by the inner tube...

The funniest lock fail I've seen is in the alleyway inbetween Colmore Row Starfucks and the Council House. Some muppet locked his QR-equipped bike with TWO Krypto NY locks - but only the wheels. I felt like stealing the rest of the bike just to teach him a valuable lesson.

If the rear wheel was locked with a mini-d in the inside of the triangle then you'd have struggled.
Gosh, haven't you read Sheldon Brown's locking guide? =D
