I don't, but I saw an unlocked bike in a park downtown remain in place for 4 days earlier this year. Bike theft just isn't a thing where I currently live.
In the last place I lived, my bike was stolen in under 12 minutes.
Well I envy you.
I went to the grocery store to grab a drink and I locked my bike. I was in the store for less than 3 minutes, when I came out my bike was gone. 3 minutes! I was so sad.
I hate to be that guy, but if you're not using a u-lock you're basically advertising a free bike for anyone with a pair of cutters
It was a U-lock They used cooled air and smashed the lock.
Then you need to spend more than $15 on your u lock, canned air can't do anything against one that's built properly
