    I'm going on holidays next week for 2 weeks, should I lock the bike up in the shed or the house? In a worst case scenario, insurance wise, does it make a difference where it is taken from if stolen???

    If in doubt put it in the house.

    when i'm going on holidays for a couple of weeks, i take the front wheel off the bike and leave it in the attic. often let the air out too - quite often, it's about slowing them down or making it inconvenient for them so they abandon the idea.

    I bring mine in the house and lock it to the step ladder

    But not your real ladder?

    My real ladder was never there for me the way my step ladder was.

    For holidays...

    Four wheels - outside.
    Two wheels - inside.

    For insurance purposes it can make a difference. I had my bike insured and one stipulation of it being locked in a shed was that it had to be secured to an immovable permanent fixture
