Did you lose your bike?
Bicycle lost and found: Leaving your bike on the bus

In the world of bicycling, one of the biggest mysteries to me is how someone can lose a bicycle.
I can understand a person losing track of a bicycle that is stolen and ditched, but apparently people will occasionally park a bike and then not retrieve it. Do they forget it? Did they die? Were they whisked away by aliens?
For instance, the Seattle Metro transit system reported that 863 people put their bicycles on bus racks in 2007 and forgot to remove them.
