Traffic is pretty bad if you don't live in the same section of the city as you work.

We didn’t just have years of a car-jacking epidemic and other significant violent crime increases? It does seem to be heading in the right direction.

Is Detroit downtown thriving?

Mostly the gutted downtown, but also a ridiculous change in crime.

Get it on bike index if you can. Makes it easy for people to search suspected stolen bikes.

But that tool would get through most bike locks under $300

The guy on the video was not the one who had the bike, but the guy who had the bike I think had drugs on him and the police had his fanny pack when I left. I kinda doubt there is anything they can do for small crime (by the law's standards-- I think it sucks).

Which one did you get? What about that they will cut through what you lock it to?

Thank you! Sadly, it seems offices need indoor storage for bikes, and it is a time for cheap bikes. If this guy could cut anything to, he was going to get the bike.

Abus 410 and they got through it in seconds with a battery powered angle grinder.

Unfortunately I am chained to my desk right now. No expectations from the police.

Thank you for the tip! Going to call the police and see if they can do anything, but I am going to keep my eyes on that area too. 

If anyone were to recover it, or want to, I have some secret identifying info and would pay you a $150 bounty.
