Maddie the Coonhound, the tumblr celebrity dog famous for precariously standing on things and being rebuffed by Good Morning America, recently turned up to Homestead to stand on fixies and ward off bike thieves.  And, we have to admit, the thought of adopting a mutt to guard our rides never occurred to us before.  Not only do they come in a variety of colors to match your frame, they become more effective the less you feed them.  Plus?  So photogenic.

Look out for our Kickstarter in the coming weeks, the funds of which we'll use to test a variety of things, like 1) are they bolt cutter resistant? and 2) where does the poop go?
