It’s not that bad really once you have done it, and hopefully you will get lots of enjoyment from your bike. It sounds compact enough to store easily inside your outfit when away, and at home, so hopefully well out of sight of opportunist thieves.
Given the above, I would try and talk to someone who provides your current house insurance, and explain how it will be stored at home, and away. Yes, you will need a lock if you intend leaving it when out, but if you are like us, it won’t happen much, if ever. All you can do is ask. The photos and all the receipts are crucial though.

The area where we live isn't known to be an area for many burglaries or thefts and my next door neighbour has one of those CCTV doorbells which picks up people who walk up my drive as well, BUT never say never! I would think that they are a good deterrent to burglars.

I will try pedalsure, although I have received some quotes from Eversure and Churchill so will compare the comparison quotes!!!

Perhaps I should have bought a canoe instead, as the way the weather has been last year and this year, it may have been more appropriate.  The weather is looking a lot better for next week though!

Maybe that will come to an end now that they're finishing using the racecourse as a site.

They have a 3 night special deal for caravanner/M/H users when the racing is on, but personally, I would not want to visit when the racing is on as I would find it too busy and most probably too noisy.

Just picked up Lizzie.  The dog seens OK, if a bit subdued and is on a course of antibiotics for the next few days, so all seems well.

I am pleased to hear that Lizzie is getting better.  Pets do seem to pick up more "bugs" when they are older but tend to get over them quickly as unlike humans, they simply live for now and don't stress over things like we do.

Sorry to hear about Lizzie, hate things like stomach upsets. Hopefully she will mend up quickly, they are such resilient little creatures. Our Lab has been for his monthly injection and drugs top up this morning. We could probably fund a cruise every couple of months with what he costs us, but we do love him🥰 He’s 15 in January🤞

Loving Flyte’s dreadlocks, he does so well Nellie🥰

Enjoyed the garden photos as well. Easton is lovely, I have a good few plants from there, and some sweet pea seeds. We haven’t been able to get this year, but it’s always one of our favourites.

David - I'm so pleased to hear that Lizzie seems to be OK.  It's so worrying when they are ill - and they can't tell you what's wrong! I still haven't forgotten Meg spending 24 hours at the emergency vets on Boxing Day, two years ago, after vomiting blood. She also was back to normal after a couple of days, but what a worrying time it was. I won't mention the bill but thankfully, her insurance covered it.
