Bicycle Commuting - 2005/07/27 02:27
I am looking for a reality check.
I recently moved to a new building and was told to leave my bicycle chained to a post in the garage. In the old building I had been bringing my bicycle up the freight elevator and leaving it in my office. It is a road bike, and I stick to what passes for pavement and keep my tires clean. Aside from the weight of a lock, the security seems totally unsatisfactory. The building has retail traffic, and I carry lights, computer, pump, tool kit, etc all of which are removable without tools, and I am concerned about potential tampering with the various adjustments on the bicycle.
I would prefer to continue bringing it inside, but I proposed a "Bike Lid" as a reasonable compromise and never even received a response. Are my concerns valid? Are my accommodation requests reasonable? I don’t want to escalate if I am the one being outrageous.
I would like a general concensus of response (so far 1:0 in my favor) as backup for a personal visit to the building mgt and then perhaps creative but ethical ideas to further petition if required.
Thanks
