f**k that just do it. I don't see it as being morally wrong at all as long as your using your own common sense and making sure the bike is fully abandoned. And don't take it too far like 'Oooh someones nicked the seat of that bike they've abandoned it now i'll have it.' I wouldn't really worry too much about getting caught to be honest, as long as your not a bumbling idiot you'll be suprised how much you can get away with at night. Rob: you ever downloaded a song, driven with one hand on the wheel while taking a sip of drink, walked across land where your tresspassing, riden on the pavement? I guess so, we can't blindly live exactly as the law says all of our lives.
