Just pulling your leg. I'll go with over!

I'll be looking for it in the morning...

Will do... but whats the difference?

I bet someone locks their bike to his bike

Will do... but whats the difference?

Some parallel parking truck will crush it.

This and if I was a thief, I'd rather steal something street side.

 

[Paul H]

Yay! I'm told POSS is still there!

pics or it didn't happen

 

[jmanic]

It is!

someone's going to steal those pedals and that Acera derailleur looks mint
lastly, handlebars with end caps, that's just bait

good luck commuting on a 95F day

And you're kind of out in no man's land with that rack.
There's not even a building on that corner anymore.
Maybe try for one of the racks closer to the station in front of an active building lobby.

 

[Paul H]

Yeah... in no man's land but the racks closer to PABT were all taken at the time.

Didn't notice until I was locking up the bike but saw signs that mtbnj'er passed by. Notube stickers! Lol
I'm thinking @soundz or @jmanic

That might have been me.
Couldn't find my MTBNJ sticker stash....

The pedals are kinda rusty... I doubt it's worth it to steal. The RD is pretty beat up too. I guess the POSS is kinda photogenic! Lol

 

[Paul H]

Google PABT bike thief and a pic if the POSS will show on the images section lol

Day 2-


Nice job! That is primo location, and you are sharing a rack with royalty.
That bike there is the longest surviving lock up I have ever seen not get parted out.

this is like watching the pregnant giraffe, good work to break the day up
even better would be to drop in a GPS tracer incase it does get stolen

@rick81721, do you still have that spying piece, I'm will to pick up just to add to the drama

Was going to do a simple recap.... err... more along the lines of my thoughts about commuting via bike at the end of the week. Day 1 was a bit nerve wracking but still fun. Day 2 i would describe it as exciting.
