The first thing I had stolen of value was a bike I had borrowed.

I had no lock for it. Kept it inside.

Stopped for a drink at a pub. Parked it where I could see it. Had a couple, bike was there, paid my tab. GONE. In 60 seconds, like I was being watched. Schwinn Collegiate 3 -speed, helluva bike.
