My bike was on my roof rack, I went in to REI, remembered 15 minutes later that I had forgotten to lock it up, ran out, too late, game over :(
Word of advice: the REI west lot is one of the highest bike theft spots in Denver. If you're leaving your bike there, make sure it's HIGHLY secure- U-locks, heavy chain, etc.
Protect your bike – get a security protection label!
Apply the protection label to your bicycle and instantly reduce the risk of theft by up to 50%! Moreover, if the bike is stolen, you increase the chance of its safe recovery by up to 70%.
