Maybe if BM management would take a harder stance on "borrowing bikes" and say it is not tolerated, it would have some effect on the problem.

thanks for the help, and I agree, from the people that I talk to if you leave your bike unlocked you have a better chance of loosing it than keeping it. I locked mine and it still didn't help, the lock was cut. Cheap cable lock but still............
