It's an interesting theory-- I wonder if any studies have been done? (I
wonder if this is the same brand that I've been seeing? I've never come
across one parked anywhere-- but I suppose if I had a rare bicycle I'd want
to take it indoors with me while I was at work.)
Thank you for the information!
