How 2 Keep Your Fitness Gear Safe From Thieves
23 Jun 2010
I love everything about Wordlock except the boring cable colors on the bike locks. I'm mostly concerned about the locking system but some neon or metallic couldn't hurt.
A word is so much easier to remember than a number, and more fun to keep changing around! Keep things interesting in the gym locker room by constantly updating your 4 or 5 letter password. You never know who's after your Lululemon gear!
Wordlock comes in a SPANISH language lock

I just blogged about bikes & thievery. Those locks are super cute but I wouldn’t use them for locking up a bike, as they are pretty easily snipped. :( Probably best for the gym locker.

Hi Sparky!
I appreciate this comment and I agree! Definitely best for gym lockers. I’ve seen and heard about too many bikes stolen around NYC…and that’s probably the only reason I don’t own a bike myself (I rent instead at the bike rental a few blocks from my place). Thanks for posting your blog link! I think it’s a great resource for my readers. Stay in touch and keep me posted on your blog updates.

Aaron, I didn’t even think about that but that’s such a good point. Kids will definitely remember a word over a boring number.

I saw the word lock on Mizzfit and thought it was a great idea. I’m always afraid that I’m going to misplace or lose my bike lock when I go out for rides. So I bought a royal blue one. It arrived promptly in 3 days and is great! I’ve used it 4 or 5 times and it works easily and there is no chance I’ll forget the combination. The quality is definitely good for normal situations. This isn’t the kind of lock you would use if leaving your bike on the street corner overnight, however, for normal restaurant stops and the like is is just perfect. Mizzfit, thanks so much for bringing this item to my attention. I’m a regular reader of your blog and enjoy all the information you bring to my attention.

So happy the lock worked out for you! Just don’t tell Leroy what your combination is!
