  • my Specialized Tarmac Sport 16 was stolen from outside the Royal Free
    Hospital last night. Black with red and white decals. I’m a medical
    doctor on the Covid rota and the bike was stolen during my 12 hour
    shift yesterday. 2 Kryptonite D locks sawn through.

    Sawed through two d locks. Outside a hospital. Amazing.

  • I'm a mechanic in a shop that is pretty much in middle of 2 hospitals, but folk who live here usually work at one of the other hospitals in the city or are healthcare in one way or another. Tend to be fitter/more active persons and tend to cycle to work.
    Why the hell aren't hospital trusts getting proper bike stores (the steel locking kind parked next to a main entrance where a security person usually is to be found) and allowing their staff to use them? You do occasionally find a hospital that has one, but locks are rusty/no one is allowed to have a key/security fed up of sending would be thieves packing (surely their job?).
    Number of thefts round here from outside hospitals/healthcare centres is high.
