<p>I had two cable locks. One went through the front wheel, frame, and went through the rack. The other cable went through the back wheel.</p>
<p>My class was 1 hour, and when I went back I found both cables cut.</p>
<p>I had the bike for 5 years, lots of memories with it and it was a kind of expensive bike. FML so bad.</p>
<p>Please tell me you didn’t use those thin cable locks that I could cut with a pair of scissors.</p>
<p>Where do you go?</p>
<p>If you were in a city, it’s kind of a bad move to not invest in a u lock or heavy chain.</p>
<p>You were probably using garbage cable locks. Get a Kryptonite U Lock.</p>
<p>aw that sucks. mine got stolen halfway through freshman year, except it was at night.
get a u lock. pref. kryptonite.</p>
<p>I agree with the above comments about getting a kryptonite u lock…I just ordered one, and currently use a kryptonite cable lock and 4 nights ago someone tried to cut but failed. Getting the u lock tomorrow…the cables you were using must’ve been thin. You should definitely contact the campus police about this and file a report. The police at my uni have told me they’ve found hobo’s with student bikes.</p>
<p>Put a GPS tracker on your next bike as well.</p>
<p>Sucks dude. Get yourself a new bike when you can and as everyone else said, invest in kyrptonite u lock. Try seeing if the campus police can find the bike first though.</p>
<p>Do you have dorm insurance at UCSB or maybe homeowners insurance (parents) that could cover it? Dorm insurance is only $100 a year.</p>
<p>What a horrible way to start the year. Assuming you get a replacement bike, try to get a cheapo that is only sufficient to get the job done, the uglier the better. Maybe the campus police have suggestions as to where you can pick one up?</p>
<p>You’re at UCSB already Jetson? How?</p>
<p>I was exploring the campus and seeing where all my classes were. Next time I should just hide a remote activated C4 explosive in the frame.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Big mistake! All it would take to ruin your life would be for someone to accidentally bumps into your bike while trying to unlock their own bike. </p>
<p>Did you register your bike with the campus police? They might be able to find it then.</p>
<p>

<p>
</p>
<p>Confused…why were you gone an hour?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Oh. lol. Where you living for your dorms/apartment?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Claymore mines should do the trick. </p>
<p>^.^</p>
<p>FT. Where do people keep bikes overknight?</p>
<p>my bike is currently in a storage closet in my apartment…and during the day when im going to class and about it’s always locked with a kryptonite u-lock. My campus is biker friendly so there are places to lock your bike throughout the campus.</p>
<p>This would not have happened in Utah, where concealed carry is allowed on campus if you have the concealed carry license.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Most people lock their bikes to the bike racks; a few take their bike with them to their rooms.</p>
<p>(note: it’s mostly people with roadbikes who take their bicycles with them to their rooms–beach cruisers and mountain bikes are too cumbersome for that mobility.)</p>
