No, "fear mongering" was your other thread that you devoted much time on, ripping others here who are comfortable with the Class 1 through 3 set up; armed with the knowledge of the major battles many, many folks had to fight politically with local land managers, local, county, states laws pertaining to ebikes as well as the same issues in Canada to get the laws changed so that people can ride their ebikes legally. That was that thread. This is this thread. The one where you take umbrage to anyone here asking why you did not at least, lock your bike.
Obviously, the only people you need to educate......is yourself. You make it seem like ebike theft did not begin in this world until it just happened to you. Actually, there are enough threads and posts here about locks and securing your bike; what works, what doesn't. Too bad for you that you did not bother to check them out, to learn a thing or two. You say the lock is too heavy carrying it on your 60 pound bike? So many excuses, so many. So, for the lack of carrying a heavy, 4 pound lock with you on your Burger King stops, you are now free of riding a heavy, 60 plus pound ebike.
That's not victim blaming. It's just calling a spade, a spade. It is, what it is. And yes, while I have great sympathy for people having their rides stolen out from under them, that sympathy gets blunted when you learn they did not protect their costly investment & then in turn, they go off on people here for having the temerity of asking "did you lock your bike up?"...........
Let me not be a hypocrite here with you. I did the same thing you've done. Many times. And in each instance, my eyes were on my bike every second. While I got lucky; you did not. But I bought that Abus Bordo for runs where I KNEW I was stopping at a convenience store. Or pizza shop. And still, my eyes never left the bike as I know a Dewalt battery powered cutting tool can cut that lock in about 10 seconds. So, your stops have to be in and out, no dawdling, everything to go. Situational awareness. Look it up. No lock is infallible. All strangers have to be looked at as suspect when they are hanging around your bike, looking it over. Until proven otherwise.
I wish you luck with your new ride. I wish you a new perspective on situational awareness when riding and parking it. And a wish for you in stopping this blame game you like to play here.
