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.

    • Was planning to come on here to ask if anyone might know which celeb/royal came through Lordship Lane yesterday - was on my way up to Spurs, on bus at the roundabout by the EDT when some whistling police cyclists pulled the traffic to the side of the road to allow a biggish range rover to shoot past, on the way up towards Dog Kennel Hill. Could only make out two, maybe middle-aged, men in the front before it passed. Mildly hysterical lady on pavement was laughing/screeching with her friend that they were desperately trying to find out who it was. Had more reason to post after this lunchtime's experience. Had just got to bus stop opposite the M&S by the station when some mini cooper thing bombed through the traffic, swerving across to cut up another car to get up the hill, before two or three police cars followed about 20 seconds behind. Said mini cooper thing then reappeared coming the other way, beeping its horn to get other cars out the way before it bombed up what I think was Elsie Road, with police cars now on both sides of the road by Maxin trying to stop traffic getting in the way/half the speeding car. Bit more than I had bargained for when I set out/want in local area! Stay careful out there folks, this place is getting scarier...
    • The stop outside the chippy was still closed earlier today, although the barriers I saw yesterday have been removed, so no need for the closure.  The stop outside the church across the road is now uncovered and open
    • You all have different and conflicting interests though. It isn't necessarily appropriate for him to communicate with all of you at the same time about the same issues.    You're giving more away with each post as to how these difficulties probably arose. 
    • @CPR Dave He needs to communicate collectively with all of the beneficiaries.  That is the whole point of my original post.  Electronic communications are the best way of doing this, as I am doing now on this forum.  Apart from the gold digger who will get a six figure sum the rest of us are on four figures, and that is going down by the day. I'm offended by any suggestion that we are not behaving well.  What on earth do you mean?
