Just thinking of taking our push bikes with us for the first time and was wondering what people use for keeping them safe on site. We dont use an awning. I have a cable lock which I cold use but dont fancy tying them to the van.
What do you all use.

Sue
thanks for that, it looks a useful tool. Read your reply at 8 this morning and sent an e-mail to the company asking for a local stockist. As yet no reply. Pity really, thought they may have been a bit quicker.

If taking two bikes usually each bike has a lock; Lock the first bike to one of the legs and lock the second to the first bike job done.

Hi We normally have four bikes with us and I use a chain through all of them then through the A frame or use one of the dog spiral anchors screw it in securely then use a bike lock it's very hard to unscrew it as the chain\lock tightens up as you turn it stopping it turning all the way------------- Doing as little as possible for as much as possible...

Always chain our bikes up to the rear handles on the caravan, and then cover with a cycle cover.

We use two sturdy cable locks and put one through the front wheels and frame, the other through the back wheels and frame. We link one of the locks to our bike rack (as we have a motorhome) but you could put it through your A frame or if out find a railing or sturdy tree.

Sometimes a little rain must fall before you reach a rainbow.
The work will wait while you show the child the rainbow, but the rainbow won't wait while you finish the work.

Just to say thanks for the replies.
It is now into the third day since I sent an e-mail to the bike lock site and as yet no reply. Musn't want the business.

You can get a Lock Alarm from Towsure. They're £21.75. Mail-order available. Think postage is about £4.95.
