I used to secure my key with a lanyard to the bars when riding around Southampton for that very reason.
I like just how pretty the vintage ones are (that’s all I’ve got) but hate how easily the oil finds somewhere to drip out of them.
I also hate how quickly the insurance comes round as I insure them all seperately to allow me flexible coming and goings, the red one just cost me £77 for the year, that could’ve bought me some more gaskets for the green one.

Thanks Chapess and Chaps, note the telephone box lending library. CBS kindly had this as a cover on their website for a while, fame at last…
