What should I do?
There are two places where I can park my bike which is a new entry level road bike. I have 2 D locks.
1. Indoor but my locks are short so I can lock the front wheel with the frame. And the back wheel with the bike pole but none of the locks links the frame with the pole.
2. Outdoor with a roof. I can lock one wheel with the frame. And the other lock goes through the other wheel, frame and pole.
Which option should I take?

Check out the other parked bikes. Try to park wherever there are nicer bikes that aren't locked as securely as yours.

It is safer to have multiple U/D locks.

Indoor. Fewer potential thieves walk by.
