That is exactly what it is. I, however, am a triathlete who lives in the dead-middle of atlanta, which is not known for it's bike friendliness. I need to my long rides on my tri-bike, and I do not ride that bike in the city (brakes are separate from gears, and it is dangerous). I have to drive somewhere. I guess I just have to hide things better, and hope for the best in the future.

Sorry to hear that Kacie. You don't have a GPS mount on your window do you? That's a red flag for thieves. Stupid jerks anyways!

kacie - I'm sorry - that sucks!

Can you get some type of locked metal box bolted to the inside of your car? Then you could put your valueables in there and leave the car unlocked. That way, at least you don't have to do car repairs each time it happens.

When I lived in Boston, that's what I had in my Jeep. I NEVER locked my doors because my soft top cost more than anything I had in the car. I figured I'd rather they just open the door over cutting through my top! Plus, when you leave the doors open, I think they figure you have nothing of value anyway.

It happens a lot at hiking trail heads as well. Theives figure it'll be awhile before you are back, so they have time to get what they want and get away....

GLC--I have heard that one before, but never really had the guts to do it. Maybe it's time to though! It's tough, because there is always some kind of gear that I need to have with me before/after a ride.....something to consider though!

In better news, Ironman people looked in their warehouse and found my sweatshirt in my size that they will sell me...so it is on the way to my house. Good thing too, cause I loved that shirt!
