I am a lady mustache in the family, and I am trying to convince the Mr. to grow as well.
We live only 2 miles from his work, and little by little, he's been riding his bike to work 1-2 times a week. (really, at just 2 miles, he has no excuse not to!). This week, he committed to riding his bike every day (all on his own, I didn't nag or anything, so I was super excited that he wanted to!). Well, last night he called me to say I needed to come pick him up-- his bike was stolen. The bike rack at his work is exactly 10 feet from the gate operator for the parking garage and there is also a security guard. He told me there are usually 3-4 other bikes there and when he came down to go home, they were all gone. The "good" news is they have a security camera pointed right at the bike rack, and they told him best case scenario is he will recognize the person (as in, it was someone who works there) but other than that there isn't much that can be done. (they will review the tape with him today).
My question is-- is there a specific type of bike lock you can recommend? We are mostly shocked because it was RIGHT next to that gate guard, and it's in what we thought was a very safe area (El Segundo, CA). And it was in the middle of the day! We just bought his bike a few months ago and now he is soured on riding bikes completely. Any recommendations? :(
