Hey Draven, I think stashing your bike in someone else's garage is a great idea. I also think you should keep the key in your face though as a further reminder. I know you're being punished enough already, but no punishment is greater that the way you'll beat yourself up over it everytime you see that key.

I think its great the way you're documenting all of this experience, just to serve as a warning to others.

Its also great to see that you're copping it on the chin without whinging and whining (as you originally said you would).

Good on you for using this as both a learning and teaching experience.

If I was your judge, I'd let you off early for your obvious intense level of remorse you've shown.

Good luck Buddy :) Keep your chin up.
