burn down italy
yea, i left things on my bike often. helmet was allways strapped to the wheel with a big chain lock thing, and everything not so important bungeed to the back.
the tent was one of those things. it was stolen at a festival in spain early on in my trip.
after that, my sleeping roll was the only thing not locked away, aswell as the tank bag which diddnt lock, so only food and water went in there.
in italy i had problems, first someone stole my boots while i had a afternoon nap in a park, then for the next 3 night, someone went through my tankbag trying to steal things.
so itialy is on my bad list.
after i escaped to germany, things were more relaxed. still locked the helmet to the bike in the big cities, but left the bike out in the middle of hamburg for about a month, often leaving jacket and other things out on it. nothing was stolen.
long story short. people will steal your stuff if they can, except the germans apparently.
