When Joe and I ride in Enumclaw we start from the high school and on our return we stop at the Enumclaw Starbuck for coffee (about 2 blocks from the high school). We carry locks in our back pouches that are attached to our seat post. We lock the bikes together and place them so we can see them through a window. We use our locks when we bike into Seattle. We usually start from New Castle Beach in Bellevue and bike over the I90 bridge and work our way to the Seattle Water Front where we usually stop at Ivars or that other place (can't remember the name) for lunch and then head back. Our locks work wonderfully but we still keep them in a spot where we can keep an eye on them.
