Thanks for those tips! Good ideas there. I sometimes want to take a break and nip into a shop when out on my bike - that is why I want to try to lock it up. At work I take it into the office ... well that is one of the main reasons for a folding bike .. but carrying it around in Waitrose might cause a bit of an issue though I could pop it into the trolley!

Seems it didn't stop some bikers though!
