Protect Your Bike

Reminder: Protect Your Bike – Don’t Let Thieves Ride Away With It!

We’re continuing to receive reports of motorbike and moped thefts, particularly 125cc models, across our local area.

Most of these thefts are happening overnight in residential streets and driveways.

Thieves are targeting bikes that are left unsecured or in easy-to-access locations. Don’t give them an opportunity!

Here are simple steps you can take to protect your bike:

Use a disc lock on your front wheel

Chain your bike to a solid object or ground anchor

Park in well-lit, secure areas, or inside a garage if possible

Use a bike cover to keep it out of sight

Never leave helmets or accessories on show

Mark and register your bike with schemes like BikeRegister

Let’s stay alert and keep our community safe.

Tag a biker you know and help us spread the word!
