Depends on how long you intend to keep it, if you know the owner, the time of day, and probably other stuff. But yeah, if you really need, I’m not strictly against it. The community idea is kinda funny, I like it!

No. Even in a safe, posh neighbourhood you’re very likely to get beaten. You might have justified it in your own mind but to everyone else you’re just a thief.

What if the owner of the bike need it before you return it?

Noup, that’s called stealing. Intending to return it later part is irrelevant and a regular excuse used by thiefs. If you need to borrow it, then ask from the owner.

oh man this is one of the worst car accidents I ever saw. He was going to friends just 3 miles away. Why would even drive that. I mean its a bit much to walk but any decent bike would get your there. Man if he had a bike he would be healthy and fine now hanging with his friend. Why oh why don’t people bike.
