Lock a bike securely

Bicycle theft in Dumfries and Galloway is relatively uncommon, but it still does happen. Check out these tips for keeping your bike secure.

It’s also worth taking a note of the frame number on your bike. This is usually stamped into the metal under the pedals on the underneath of the frame. Or it can be a sticker with a bar code in that area. This number is unique to the bike so if stolen you can provide this to your local police force in the event of it being recovered.
