What a tit !

[AndyGB]

I am.

For the first time ever I put the disc lock on my bike when I parked it at work yesterday. So yes, when the time came to head home I forgot all about it and managed to move about 3 inches before the front wheel locked.

The crash bungs stopped the fairing from being damaged in the resultant drop but I've got to try and bend the brake pedal back out !

You should get one of those flourescent yellow reminder cables, they're very hard to ignore I got one with my disk lock and no troubles so far in 6+ months of removing it before I ride off

Mate I did absolutely the same thing the other night after work, couldn't believe it.. Damaged my speedo cable

thats why i got a alarmed one from Lidl. was like 10quid and works a charm, as soon and you even slightly move it it goes off. So it goes off as you sit on it so you dont forget!

That's what makes me a double tit, I do have one just didn't think to put it on as I thought there was no way I would forget !!

Look on the bright side, at least you know it works!

[KevTM]

lol, nice going (or not)

I always give my bike a wee once over once I get back to it anyway so I'd notice things like that, especially if I put it on .

Got to laugh

I know someone who did that three times, bending the brake disc each time. He will never use a disc lock again.

When I put the Disc Lock on I also flick the kill switch (a trick I learned on here). Works for me.

Haha, I sometimes do the same thing, usually if its not where/when i'd put a disc lock on, i.e outside a shop... I sometimes put the lock on if theres yooofs about, and because I wouldn't normally I forget about it.


Luckily its alarmed, I just look like an ass for getting on my bike and hearing this loud assed alarm!
