But "an answer is required"

Many of the questions did not work for me and I had to select an approved option as well as comment. I lock to anything or nothing i.e. none of the available options. I have no problem carrying or stowing my lock. Cost was also a problem - I bought my lock in 1975 so had to guess what it might cost these days and I probably over estimated.

Thanks for the feedback.I have fixed the problem with the last question so now its optional so shouldn't have anymore problems. Anymore troubles let me know.
Thanks Steve

Not an option to answer for me. I have three trikes and each one uses a different kind of lock. Single answers are not appropriate.

You could do the survey three times I guess.

On a positive note, I realised that virtually everything I lock up to on a daily basis, is a an element of a purpose built piece of cycling infrastructure (Gym, supermarket, supermarket, butchers) Proof that the planning system works, as it's all been installed at the request of the now defunct local planning department (Excluding the butchers)

Interesting to reflect that it's only the public sector sites I cycle to, which haven't got any cycling infrastructure; library, doctors surgery, HMRC office, my office, county hall, another library, local hospital, local A & E dept

I can't answer this question:

Do you find Storing your bike lock when riding inconvenient. If so why?

There isn't a box marked "No".

The survey won't let me finish without answering the question!

I just typed No in the "Other" box. That works.

Theres also no option to have a lock cheaper than £10.

Now I have this problem.
