Can't speak for Brad, but I lock my Atlantis outside short term when I'm running errands. Knock on wood, I haven't had any problems yet. At least not with the bike itself. Had my headlight stolen once because I forgot and left it on the bike. And I take any saddlebags, handlebar bags off when lock it too. I generally just use one of the Kryptonite NYC u-locks, usually through the front wheel and frame, but if I'm leaving it for a longer time I'll also use a heavy duty cable lock through the rear wheel and frame too.
My impression is that bike theft rates vary widely from neighborhood to neighborhood. But maybe I've just been lucky too. I figure the Atlantis is for riding. If it gets stolen or vandalized, well, it would be pretty annoying and an inconvenience for sure, but just another excuse to save my pennies and go shopping at Rivbike.com again.
