Hey everyone. Was either the first time I have not locked the door or thieves are getting smarter. I foolishly left my fiance’s bike in my car while parked at the Lloyd Center yesterday between 3:15 and 3:39 pm. When I got back to the car, the bike was gone.
2015 Masi X2 Comp. Silver frame with light blue accents. Skewers on wheels for theft prevention. Front wheel has a gold frame. Back wheel had gotten stolen previously so it now has a black wheel. Drop handlebars with light blue tape. White saddle with black tiger on it.
Filed a police report and put something on bike index. I live in Outer Buckman but again, got swiped at lloyd center.
Thanks!!

This basically says thieves are prowling parking lots pretty consistently for this to have happened so quickly.
Yes, certainly! Scary stuff.
lloyd center is a hotbed for this (and lots of other crime) . NEVER leave your bike in your car, if you do at least lock it to the car just like you would outside. I can’t believe we have not discussed this more as it is a well known occurrence.
