Does anyone have any advice for preventing theft while on a long-distance cycling tour? I'm
planning a long (solo) trip this summer and I'm worried about my bike or the contents of my
panniers being stolen.
Obviously, one needs to be vigilant, but there are times when leaving the bike unattended is
unavoidable (while using the bathroom or buying groceries, for instance). I'm considering taking a
lock, but a U-lock is clearly too heavy. Maybe a padlock and cable?
Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
later, dave
