In Canada we have U-locks and still have problems with theft. In Japan they have 1 inch locks that stop one side of a wheels spokes. You can still move the bike backwards, but unless you have a screwdriver or physically turn the lock away you may face some minor issues when trying to bike away. Also they don't lock the bikes to anything. Despite having a complex registration and parking system the Japanese still complain of bike theft as an issue. This is in many ways reinforcing the Japanese way, society pressure rather than physically practical applications.

Seminar House II, my new home.
It's pretty great to have a balcony, but it is the traditional Japanese type with a view of someone else's balcony on one side and a brick wall on the other.

The first and only day I've seen sun. The whole campus was built at the same time so every building looks exactly the same.
