GPS blamed for bike theft increase

I would recommend reading this if you use a garmin / strava etc

About £175,000 worth of bikes have been stolen in Staffordshire, UK, and police believe thieves are targeting bikes through GPS data logged on ride-sharing platforms.

and change your strava privacy settings so that it hides your office / home address!!
