I have had 3 bikes stolen in ABQ.  Two from my stupidity leaving my
garage door open overnight, in 2006, near NE ABQ.  The third was from
a bike rack outside the UNM LAW School front entrance.  I used a
cable, stupidly, which was clearly snapped with ease.

market with a casual lock? Forgot and left the garage door up?
