So far I got some bee stickers and put them here and there on it. Dunno if I'll do anything further.

Yes, I got a big-ass Kryptonite lock and chain combo. And I have discovered that riding around this city is not for the faint-hearted - you have to be able to remain cool when you discover yourself facing down two lanes of traffic on a street you hadn't realized was one-way! Obviously I survived unscathed - but I'm gonna have to start adding arrows to my mental map of this place.

When I found myself getting nervous, I used to shout "I AM A MACK TRUCK!" It helped. Drivers give plenty of space to Mack trucks. :)

And hey, if it encourages you to start taking space on the ROAD like a Mack truck, the cars will SEE you and make space.

I'm real glad I learnt to be an aggressive biker during a few parts of my California commutes; I find myself having to hop out into traffic and claim carspace pretty regularly.
