So here we are again. Once again -this time in broad daylight- my bicycle was stolen. Every year, a bicycle gets stolen from us. For a while there, they were stolen in the bicycle sheds.
I was going to pick up my kids from school and walked out to a cut lock that was on the ground. Can't exactly bike on that. This is really terrible, especially since we are all so very dependent on our bikes.
I had to call school to have my two eldest sons bike home by themselves today. The good thing is that they will have a couple of roads to pass and then they can travel safely on a bicycle path all the way home.
People that steal the bikes here want one for themselves or sell them off. There is no bike insurance worth paying for, it is such a terribly common crime here. The sad thing is that most people that steal have no means, and they usually end up stealing from other people that also have no means. Like I wrote earlier, societies in the modern world are built on taking... not giving.
That person which so disgracefully and selfishly stole my bike can have it. I will leave it at that, and get an un-cuttable lock for my next used bike.
