what would you lock your bike to? Doubt they have those bike racks to lock your bike to.It depends on the tent. Usually when bike touring, you're likely to be carrying a smaller, lighter tent which won't accommodate a bike, but that needn't necessarily be the case:

If having the bike in the tent with you doesn't float your boat, then a good bike lock might be the way to go. Most campsites tend to be relatively trouble-free, so once securely locked, it's no more, and probably less at risk than if chained somewhere in the city.
Is that the bike being attached to the tent by rope?
No the bike is the tent frame, no poles, the hoop at the bottom is the front wheel.Is that the bike being attached to the tent by rope?

That is a very interesting tent set up! If there was a thief they would definitely wake you up if they tried to steal your bike- so I guess they would not even try doing that! Are there any other tent set ups that give bike safety?No the bike is the tent frame, no poles, the hoop at the bottom is the front wheel.

So put the lock where the metal stand thing is for the tent? I'm assuming your bike would have to be down flat on the ground and not up right for this? Do you have some sort of visual for this?I asked a similar question on here several years back.
One of the best suggestions was to use two of those ground screw things with a loop at the top that people use for securing dog leads and presumably a dog to. If you put your lock through both of those there isn’t a way to unscrew them out of the ground.
2 of those a bit big/heavy to carry?I asked a similar question on here several years back.

I have one of those but haven't used it yet.
You'd be popularI have one of those but haven't used it yet.
It's incredibly loud.
I never used them in the end. The tour I had planned back then got cancelled two days before (long story!).So put the lock where the metal stand thing is for the tent?
