Day #316 Secure Your Bike Rack

Is your bicycle rack steal-able?
This is pretty important, though not as important as having the entire bike stolen, especially if you are using a bicycle solely and don't have alternative transportation.
On the PEI trail in 2003, I rode my 13 year old Raleigh Hybrid.
A year later it was stolen from outside my home, I suspect by someone who had been at the pub next door.
Protect your gear, and invest in a very secure bike rack, too.
For the most part, though, people in Canada are pretty respectful.
Don't spoil your trip with unnecessary worrying. Enjoy your rides.
