2. That sucks, but I wouldn't leave a bike locked to a public rack overnight ever, anywhere.

I had a bike in Manhattan, nice light frame road bike that I hefted up to the third floor walk up apartment with every use.

Locked outside the Cooper Union one day for just an hour and it was gone.

Never got over it. Funny thing about that tho, it was build up from a frame that was locked to a parking sign post, stripped, there for weeks, and I took the frame to the bike shop on East Houston and had it turned back into a bike.

That was my cool light ugly street Fuji, and some fucker took it!
