Lesh noticed that his stolen bike ended up for sale on Craigslist. When
police declined to intervene, Danny decided to take justice into his own
hands (or feet, in this case):
After haggling over the Craigslist price, Lesh says, he asked for
a test ride. The vendor agreed, and Lesh pedaled around the block back
to the waiting cab. He tossed the Cannondale in the trunk and rode off.
The vendor called about half an hour later, demanding Lesh return the
bike and threatening to notify the police himself, though it appears
that call never materialized.

That is intense. It's one of the reasons I got a Montague bike - it's so easy to store inside. While not impossible to steal (someone could break into my apartment) it gives me much greater piece of mind.
