This weekend I was up at my Moms, the bike is still there and nobody's opened the case. So I wrote down the 4 digit combo and planned to open it and check the bike for my sister, Duck.
Only problem is the case is a 3 digit combo. I tried the first 3 digits, last 3, similar combos. Mom has a dial up connection so I could not spend a lot of time on TE.
Txt messages flew to KnottedYet and Duck on Wheels "try to find out what the combo is, this is not it".
Meanwhile we decided, "how many can it be? why hire a locksmith, let's just go through the possibilities"
So 001 (jiggle, push, try to open) 001 (nudge nudge) 003 (listen for a click) ..... 654 (wiggle, try the latch) 655 ..... cell rings.
"Try 999, 123, 524 or 000"
I started at 001 and .... it was 000.
Guess I should keep my day job and forget the safe cracking job.
BTW the bike looks beautiful.
