Who said that you couldn't ride in Dec. On way back from a week away in Spain. Andalusia is warm and dry so far.

Here's my pic of the day - how to lock up and retain your bike in London. Takes ages. Not sure if I've put it up before. A pragmasis, an almax, and also a couple of disc locks.

Anyone that opens up their garage and rides straight out is living in heaven.

Looks like you still only have to cut one link too steal your bike

All looks a bit mad, what's the point of the black covered chain wrapped around the two other chains?

True!

No it's got one almax (dark brown / maroon chain sleeve underneath the blue pragmasis); one pragmasis (blue) and a cheaper black squire chain wrapped around the middle of both. The purpose of that is so the main two chains can't be rotated / manoeuvred to make cutting the large locks easy. They would have to cut through that first. They like to manoeuvre them to cut through the shackle of the padlocks.

Or take the rear wheel out. Much quieter. Pop the rear on a wheeled trolley.

Although admittedly not the modus operandi of the current London scumbags who push it away...

Best to get the chain through the frame or swing arm if you can...

Dunno about that, my bike lives in a garage that connects to the road by a gravelled back lane. I nearly dropped the the riding the bike off to nightshift earlier this year.

Once at work though, it goes in a locked car park. Motorbikes are the only private vehicles allowed to park there, thank fk.
