Ways not to lock your bike

Dullards do exist

cool story warning: I used to work on the Haymarket and often locked up on a parking meter outside macdonalds. One day after work I came out and it had gone - the parking meter had been moved about 20 yards down the road, and the workmen who'd done it had gone to the trouble of making sure my bike was still locked to it when they finished moving it.

Good story bet it gave you a shock though

Not quite as shocking as watching the TV* news one evening and seeing Terry Venables being interviewed standing in front of my bike.

*Olde worlde expression for the television, not short for Terry Venables. As far as I know he doesn't have his own channel. Yet.

Give it time. As soon as he's Liverpool manager.

If this could take a person's weight would be great to get some good views or photo's ;)

I saw this bike yesterday in condor, maybe he went to buy a decent lock.

Maybe he was having a brew about a yard away and just wanted to defer chancers.

what did he do sumo?

I saw one of these...

Outside a not so nice area'd tesco yesterday... scissors anyone?

nail clippers

it's my bike. I borrowed the lock to pop to the local shop. It was just to stop someone walking off with it. I just had to take the picture because it's ridiculous.

Who did you borrow the lock off? Barbie?

Unfortunatly no picture, but I saw a bike locked up yesterday with a padlock through a loop on a mesh fence, clipped onto the rear pannier rack

I can only think that the owner of this bike was given the Create by a friend/relative, couldn't face telling them how crap the gift was and is trying to get it stolen:

liking the one more twat on a bike sticker.

Knowing self-hatred for owning the Create

aha nicely done, wish I got a pic of this little kids bmx about 14" wheel or so with the lock just wrapped around the seat and some post


so close and so far....

^^ 'Ways not to fit your bars'?

I'll have that bag and rack if it's still there...

That piddly little thing isn't going to be accepted if you lodge an insurance claim, whether you left it in lovely St Margarets or not...

I wouldn't want a nice bike like that go walkies... :(
