However, I switched over to my custom made bike because the tires on the old bike are $150 each and since they're glued on to the rim, they're a bitch to remove and replace when they wear out. The tires on my newer bike are only $60 a piece and a cinch to re and re.

Where I park my bike is in the bowls of my office building, and you need a magnetic pass card to get into the garage and then past a security guard. It's safe.
