Hello all.


I'm sure we're all aware by now that bike sales have gone up and more people now own them = less places to store them i.e bikeway + cyclehoops. I've just come back from working in various places around the country and have had no luck finding any storage for my bike what so ever. Live on East Dulwich Estate in a tiny studio with very limit space. I've contacted the council and they're not taking grant applications for storage at the moment or seem interested in putting in more cycle storage. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do?

Stay safe x

This is a local guide on how to get bike parking https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/campaigns/how-to-get-secure-cycle-parking-on-your-street/ but I gather you have tried this line already.


If you have any outside space (I'm guessing you don't) or spare cash (ditto) then this bike shed is very secure https://www.shedstore.co.uk/7x3-asgard-access-plus-green-metal-bike-shed-4-bikes?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIq6m0lfjR6gIVS7DtCh0qXQ47EAYYBSABEgIdufD_BwE


You probably know all about getting your bike registered. The police like this one https://www.bikeregister.com/. Vandalise your own bike before someone does it for you etc.


Join the London Cycling Campaign and benefit from their insurance cover https://membership.lcc.org.uk/insurance-legal-advice. Check your household insurance (f you have it) and see if it includes stolen bikes.


I'm not sure I'm being very helpful. If you lived in Nunhead I'd offer you a place in my bike shed. Maybe someone nearer to you than me, might do that.

    • Not really since the first world war, and mainly in the sense then of 'getting a Blighty one' meaning a wound so serious you had to be sent home. I seriously doubt if one school child in 100 now would know what Blighty meant if the word was presented on its own with no context.

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.
