Get Your Bike Passport

In the last week, I have been upset to find bike frames without wheels abandoned within the Hillhead area. Theft of bikes and their parts is a serious concern. 

Bikes parked on Eldon Street.

There are over 500,000 bikes stolen in the UK annually according to Strathclyde Police. This can be due to them being poorly secured or not secured at all. Action has to be taken to protect bikes and lock them up effectively to prevent theft. 

Keeping bike details including their serial number stored at your home for reference is recommended as this makes it easier for the Police to recover the bike if it is stolen.
