Bike Theft

🚲  Keep Your Bicycle Secure 🚲

Please be mindful of leaving bicycles insecure when visiting shops, cafes, and other local businesses.

Opportunist thieves only need a few seconds to steal an unattended or insecure bike. Even if you're only popping into a shop briefly, always:

✅ Use a good quality lock
✅ Secure your bike to a fixed object
✅ Lock both the frame and wheel where possible
✅ Avoid leaving bicycles unattended without a lock
✅ Consider registering your bike and recording its frame number

A quick stop can be all it takes for a thief to strike. Taking a few simple precautions can help prevent your bicycle from becoming an easy target.

If you see suspicious activity around bicycle racks or storage areas, please report it to Staffordshire Police via 101, online, or call 999 in an emergency.
