Advice on locking your bike at school
1. Walk to the bike shed - cycling on school grounds is dangerous and teachers and parents don't like it
2. Park your bike in the opposite direction to the bike on the same hoop so the handlebars don't get tangled
3. Lock the frame to the hoop or a sturdy object
4. Take your helmet with you - leaving it in the bike shed could trip someone and damage your helmet
Scooters: Parking your scooter in the bike racks causes a lot of trouble for bikers. Ask for scooter parking if there is none.
