I've secured my bike to a lamppost outside my propery for the last 5 years and have never had an issue.


I use Almax chains (Almax Immobiliser Series III):

You need to spend around ?70 on the chain and ?90 on the lock, but I highly recommend!

My CBF600 LC54 UYX Grey (altho is more like a metalic silver blue) stolen in the early hours 31-01-15 from Wood Vale, over 10 years old, high mileage and not worth very much (except as trusty transport for me) didn't think it was the sort of bike theives take the risk nicking, gutted

I've had 5 bikes stolen in the 19 years of living in Trossachs Road. I made the mistake of thinking that they were too old to want to steal. My last Bike was carried out of my front garden.You could see the thief's footprints as they had climbed over my window ledge to access the bike. That was a BMW 650 Strada. I now chain to the lamppost and to each other. So far so good!!

Oh, Police didn't bother coming out once!

Looking for a little help!

Has anyone used one of the ground anchors available under the East Dulwich crime prevention fund and if so, do you recommend?

If not - are there any other recommended makes for ground anchors and accompanying chains. Also any suppliers locally or best to order online.


thanks for any pointers.

    • I don't think there are stupid questions Sue.  There are informative questions, policy questions, normative questions.... You suggest to do a sort of survey! Interesting idea but not for me as I have other priorities and if I do not address these with NHS doctors I will go, once again, privately.  In any case as many people using this forum know, GP surgeries in England offer at present services that in most cases do not and cannot cover matters that are under the remit of secondary care - for instance rheumatologists clinics in hospitals. If the dismantlement of NHS England will bring possible positive changes also in primary care with more choices for people  I do not know but I would really hope so because at the moment lot of people with chronic rheumatic conditions  fall into the cracks  of he system, that means are not seen by NHS rheumatologists that have long queues and cannot be cured by GPs neither in most cases, even when (I am sure about this and I would like to know more) there are physicians and local GPs fully qualified and experts to do such jobs even if they are not rheumatologists!    Thank you for your time Sue and by the way  if you do any survey like the one you mentioned please let us know. 
    • There was a thread about this a year ago that included a post from the new owners. Be great to have an update - nothing seemed to be happening when I walked by last week. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/343709-kenro-press-empty-shop-forest-hill-road/#comment-1662773
    • And don't the Veolia collection teams wear uniforms with Southwark Council logo on them...this might explain why the councillors were so keen to point out the lorry wasn't operated by the council because if you saw a load of people clambering out of the cab of a lorry one that just rolled wearing clothing emblazoned with the council logo you might think it was being operated by the council. The Helen Hayes reference is weird as well it was almost as if the councillor post was: this is awful, nothing to do with us, speak to Helen.
