Well, if you haven’t noticed from the first 7 posts, I’m an idiot the greatest. I did something kind of really stupid when I put my bike in that tree. No, the stupid thing wasn’t putting my bike in a tree. It was taking off my kryptonite lock to take the picture. It’s a big orange and black ugly thing in the middle of my frame. It had to go for the sake of the picture. Yes, I feel stupid for forgetting it on the grass, but I'm not on this earth to just not put bikes in trees!
About half an hour earlier, I took a picture of it on a cool bridge and did the same thing. A girl walking by asked if the lock was mine when she saw it on the ground. I forgot I put it down then too.
Forshadowing?
Here’s the Craigslist posting:

I left my Kryptonite lock in Humber Bay Park; you know that nice bit of trail on the waterfront between S Kingsway and Royal York Road.
If you’ve found it please let me know and I’ll head wherever you are to pick it up, it’d be really nice to lock up my bike again, asking strangers to watch it for me is too unreliable and awkward.
How do you forget a lock? You pull it out and realize that you’re in a park and don’t need it because you’re just climbing the tree it’s leaned against. And then you forget it…
And hey, there's $25 in it for you if you return it.
Thanks!
