      Rocketjumpingspy They covered the side panel signs with another merchant sign, but left the rooftop sign visible. Looks as though they want to warn off any bike thieves that live in the upstairs apartments on that street.

    tips for bike security 1: use a chain instead of a cable lock to prevent thieves from cutting the bike from the rack with cable cutters. 2: use a keyed padlock to secure the chain, combination locks are easy to break into. 3: etch your bikes serial number inside a hollow part of the bike that you can get to. Hope this helps protect your bike!
