planning first bivvy trip any suggestions as far as bike security etc whilst asleep

Don’t bivvy in a town centre apart from that….

eh???

Be as far from people as possible.
Relax. Sleep.

If you pick your location right nobody will know your there.

I’ve always taken the precaution of taking as much whisky as I think I’ll need, and then taking some more.

It’s always worked for me.

An ultralight solution would be some fishing line.

Tie one end to your ear and the other to your bike anybody tries to whip it and they’ll have to take you with them.

(unless of course your ear come off first but at least you’ll wake up)

sleep with one arm in the spokes?

Monkey puzzle helmet lock?

(put your helmet (bike helmet) straps through the wheel and around the rear stays and clip it up, cover it with a bag)

Flamigos sleep one halve of their brain at a time. Something to think about there in this context.

should have added that i live in the south east so a bit croweded at the best of times

Can’t think of any more….

A small lock is handy for rural pubs though

In all seriousness unless you’re biving right in a town this should not matter, I’ve bivied on Leith hill FFS. No worries, just choose your site, It’s not hard to find a place where you will be undiscovered between 8 pm and 7 am.

Watch Dog Soldiers before you go out … it’ll stop you worrying about bike theft 😉
