I had my bike pinched last night. It was worth about £30, no more. I don't have a car at present, but it's winter, I only go to to the shops. Now means that I have to walk and carry the feckin rucksack.
No clever (comment) stuff please...
I'm going to get another bike.
Anyone got any ideas how to protect it for more than the 3 weeks that I owned the last (first) one?
No. I have no access to nuclear missiles. I cannot wire the damn thing up to the mains. Yes, I've ordered a pull cord rape alarm to attach to the (next) bike. Without being (too) flippant about this, WTF can I do to protect this little bit of kit?
Currently, having given up on a high frequency generator (unless you sparky types can suggest something none lethal) I'm stuck with the inconvenience of removing the front wheel (of the new bike) and storing the thing on the bow.
Thieving scrotes just walk in, 20.03 last night according to marina cameras, take a lump of something heavy, break the bl**dy lock and nick my current transport. We're on board most of the year, and didn't hear a thing.
Your thoughts....
