Kieren Oct 2006 5:40pm, 31 Oct 2006 0 posts	Kieren haha - could be good tri training. I saw one triathlete on Channel 5 finish the cycle part of his race carrying his bike - can't think what his name was but it was inspiring. If I'm ever there with my bike you're welcome to share my lock. I carry a 4kg chain with a mini D lock. I have a smaller U-lock but the chain is easier to carry as I can wear it. It was pretty cheap too at £50, I paid another £50 for teh Abus mini U-lock wiggle.co.uk
Hanneke Oct 2006 5:45pm, 31 Oct 2006 0 posts	Hanneke Thanks Kieren, but I really am determined never to lock the racer other than inside somewhere safe... even in a car I hyde it under a blanket. I have an abus motorbike lock for my foldup... it weighs twice as much as the bike and probably about half as much as me Had one like that before, still got cut... people go around with battery operated angle grinders these days. I have my commuter foldup stolen on average once every 8 months, even though I take it inside wherever I can and have this incredible lock...

Hanneke Oct 2006 9:04pm, 31 Oct 2006 0 posts	Hanneke Ahhh, thanks Holly! Ok, that does it... not in London this Saturday but most likely the next and if not the one after that. Lets just hope calves and knee collaborate and I can be back runniing in a week or two and I shall come along either on the 11th or the 18th
