- huuu 11y agoI'm not sure this is always true. In The Netherlands a lot of bikes are stolen because people are too lazy to walk. Most of the time your stolen bike can be found again next to a bus stop or train station.

- augustnagro 11y agoThere are 8 people in the Netherlands. I doubt the country can properly represent bike theft.
- erelde 11y agoThere may be only 8 people, but those 8 people have 16 bicycles. (and btw, there's more than 8 people)
- tobiasu 11y ago> but those 8 people have 16 bicycles Each. As a cyclist, N+1 is real :)
- huuu 11y agoLooked up some stats for you: ~40% is stolen by professionals ~28% is stolen by junks That's why I used the words "I'm not sure this is always true." ;) By the way, bike owners: US: ~18% NL: ~84%
