@gcvsa @bikenite A7. This very much depends on where it's parked and what the area is like of course. In a sorta sketchy area, I think I'd feel ok leaving it locked for an hour or so. I could probably go a few hours and leave it locked but feel uneasy about it.

In the past, I left my bike locked outside overnight (in San Francisco), and I didn't like that much.

I do have a tracker on my bike now, so I can obsessively refresh my phone to alleviate my anxiety

I remember once visiting Cologne and borrowing a friend's bike. It only had a cafe lock (rear wheel) and I asked if it was ok to leave the bike out while we went shopping. The friend I was borrowing the bike from didn't care much for the bike and didn't think anyone would try to take it.
