They had an easy time of it though the other week, it wasn't locked (hadn't been locked for the previous year either!) i thought the height was enough deterrant, and for a year it was! Still dont know how they did it! but rather than an unchained bike on the balcony, there's now a faghetaboutit holding it to the top railing which is far too thick to get bolt cutters through, and cant slide left to right due to the balcony lugs, and the extra chain going through the railings and the wheels. I feel it's pretty secure now, and its obviously still insured! I like the tarp idea, or maybe some thick bamboo behind the railings to block off visibility?!
I kind of agree with the missus that a dirty, oily bike shouldn't be kept on our cream carpets though!
