RE: How do you lock up your bike?
How about a pager? At least if somebody picks up the bike the pager will go off and you may be able to deter the theft or at least report it quickly. Anybody agree/disagree? Can the thieves disable an alarm system successfully before it sets off the pager? I'm thinking of paying the $199 for a pager for my factory alarm system as that one extra step. I don't want to carry a big cable and lock around with me and most of the time you can't find anything to chain the bike to anyway.
Taking into a motel room designed for the handicapped? I totally think that's wrong. What if a handicapped person shows up at the hotel that night and needs a room?

THAT'S THE ONE! It looks about as tough a lock and chain as I'm ever gonna find. But as a few of you have pointed out, it depends on weather or not there is anything conveniently located to chain the bike to. Insurance? Absolutely! But I think deterrence is the first line of defence.

When the front forks are locked. 2 guys can set the front wheel on a skate board and away they go (seen it done). If possable lock the rear wheel and lock the forks.
