I understand where you are coming from. I also suspect you don't live in a 100 year old house. It's not quite as easy as "fixing up" a garage door.

I didn't leave it in my driveway with the keys in the ignition.

I'm sorry about your bike bro! I hope that you had insurance. BTW if you post some pics of your garage,I can tell you how to fix it,that's what I do for money. I know it's a little late now but maybe as a precaution for the next bike?

I see that, and I know you used your truck to barricade the thing in, but maybe throwing in a latch on the inside with a big lock, or something like that... I mean you never know, Ive heard crazy stories of what thieves do when they want to get their hands on a bike, so you cant never be 100% sure.

either way it sucks when this type of shit happens.

The fact is... no matter WHAT you do. if a thief wants your shit... they'll get it. all you can do is make it tough for them.

I'd have done the same thing... I'd have felt comfortable that with my bike basicly blocked in the back of my truck it'd be safe. ACTUALLY it's what I've done countless times... and what I've planned on doing when I get to Mississippi as apparently people in Mississippi don't believe in those new fangled things called garages.

anyways. Sucks bro... hope you can find your shit before it's stripped!
