I'll be commuting on my new trike (11 miles each way).
Thing is our bike shed is laughable at best, and tbh until I ride in on Thursday I'm not really sure if my front wheels will fit between the n thingies.
The bike shed is one of those one sided scoop things which appears to be designed to channel the wind, rain etc. Into it. I'm already aware on rainy days I'll be starting my ride home on a wet seat.
But how does one actually lock it up? At the moment I'm popping a D-lock round the cruciform, then using loops to catch the wheels and seat. Is this the best way?
Being on an engineering park there are a lot of people about on the search for scrap to nick, so even non QR wheels need to be locked up.
Any thoughts? And is is normal to fear for the bike? (My Dawes never got bothered)
