from your Neighbourhood Beat Team.... Cyclists; love them or hate them you can’t deny that they are everywhere at the moment. Whether or not you like taking to the road on two wheels, you can probably appreciate that having a car crawling behind you while waiting to pass is just as frustrating for the cyclist as it is for the driver. And as the weather perks up, you can guarantee that more and more people will be taking their bike out for a ride. So please, whether you are behind a wheel or at the handle bars, let’s all be patient and considerate on the roads and don’t forget those helmets. But it’s not just your own safety that you need to be mindful of, take a moment to think about the security of your bike otherwise you could be facing a long walk home. Most bike owners do the right thing by securing their cycles to allocated posts. The problem is the chains that are often used are very easy to cut. Putting a £5 padlock or chain on a £1,000 bike is a bit like closing your front door but leaving it unlocked. It isn’t enough to stop criminals. Take pride in your ride. Lock
up your bike if you leave it, no matter how short your stop, and always park where it can be seen clearly. D-locks are stronger than cable locks or chains as they are a solid metal and very difficult to cut through. Make sure the lock is tight so that your bike is difficult to move around, twist or lever when it is parked. Never lock your bike to something that is weaker than your lock and never leave the lock lying on the ground where it could be smashed easily. Mark your bike’s frame via Bike Register or with Selectamark or CreMark. Always keep a record of the frame/serial number and take photos of your bike, including details such as the make, model, frame size, colour and any other unique markings that could help us find it. Register those details at www. immobilise.com or www. bikeregister.com as this will help us get your bike back to you if it is stolen and later recovered. Report suspicious or unusual activity around bikes to police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 with any information.
