I got one for $20 at a garage sale and worked ok until the tires gave out and I haven't gotten around to changing them yet. But I don't need high performance tires or anything since I just bike around the neighborhood, so that will be what, another $50? Bikes are cheap if you don't care if they're brand new.
Finding one that's the right size can sometimes feel like you won the lottery.

Much like how Vlad the impaler would leave the golden chalice in the city square, daring anyone to take it...
Can do too, Germany, the nicer part of the city here. Left my car with open windows in the summer, with my stuff in it, over night, nothing. Wouldn't do it in the northern city though. My seats would've been gone.
I'll raise that by the time I left my car window open for 4 days in a semi big German town. After police couldn't get ahold of me, a neighbour covered it himself with plastic so the inside wouldn't get wet.
