Small town bike security

[TrekDianna]

I am 1.5 hours south of Portland, or 3 hours south east depending on which house I am in at the time. When are you arriving? Do you have a mtb?

Also lock it to your car if you have it on the bike rack. My DS had two bikes stolen in Portland this past year. One out of the back of his truck, which has a shell that was locked but the bike wasn't locked to the truck, broke the lock on the hatch and took his bike. Second bike was out of sight behind a 15 foot gated fence but someone neglected to make sure the gate had shut securely when they went to work. He came out and bike was gone... Love Portland but theft is rampant.
