Vandalism!
In Jersey City! Unbelievable!
Imagine, the Jersey Citoyen returns from a terrific jazz festival in Montreal to find this done to my bike:
What kind of asshole takes the wheels off someone's bike? Just to prevent me from riding around town with my girlfriend for a few days? Fortunately, the BORB* is still in good shape:
I also noticed some signs of perhaps more drastic vandalism down the street:
This is the unmistakable broken glass from a car window. So despoilers are hitting cars now too? You'd think the local law enforcement would make this their top priority, rather than busting local music shows. But change is slow.
* Stands for Big Orange Road Bike. Get it?
