Uhm, yeah, I left it out twice, when we were camping on Canada Day. I was really stupid and forgot a lock, so I just hid my bike underneath the truck. No one noticed, luckily. I've left it out with a lock too. I always feel so bad, like its gonna be completely rust covered or something in the morning. It always makes me feel uncomfortable.

i keep my bike in a locked garage with bars over the windows and a double locked door. so thay are pretty safe. but my freing who lives in kelowna had his stinky stolen from outside a candy store. and then another one stolen from school in victoria. luckily they found the guy and got the bike back.

If you are one of the few remaining bmx riders with brakes such as me, It is best not to leave your bike outside in winter where extreme cold can freeze everything that moves on your bike solid, or in summer, where downpours can randomly pop out anytime during the day and cause handlegrip-slippage and rythmic sqeaks that increase in tempo when you zip down big hills.In fact my bike seems to hate moisture.. do you think bikes work better in dryer climes like Arizona?Very confused

i would never leave my bike outside. ever. even if there is no chance of it gettin stolen it could rust or anything. no way.
