I've had three bikes stolen, but none in the traditional way of coming back to a bike rack only to find the bike missing.
Two were stolen from my garage by workers, these were by people with jobs and not by homeless crack heads. One was a $2500 road bike and the other was my mountain bike.
The other a multi-speed street bike was lost to a mugging (like a bike-jacking) by an organized bike theft gang of around eight that attacked me all at once. (Stay clear of suspicious groups of cyclists in isolated areas where one spry rider is riding double.)
The workers didn't get my nice tri-bike because it was in the house attached to a wind-trainer.
It's all very irritating; the value of the bikes to the bike thief is so low compared to the cost of replacing them.
