Posted: 22:53 - 31 Oct 2023 Post subject: Ground anchor position |
|
|
I’m having work done in my garage and have an opportunity to install a ground anchor and the concrete slab is being cut through.
My question is where does one position it, the bike goes in the corner with wall to the front and right side (as you sit in it), should the anchor be below the wheel, to the wall side or garage side.
Wall seems the most secure but potentially awkward to use.
Above the wheel saves chain length, the wheels are stored off the ground as the bike is stored on an abbastand.
Garage side is easiest, potentially a trip hazard and easiest for a thief to get at.
So what’s the BCF opinion?
For reference I’m thinking of a Y anchor, https://yanchor.com/ |

One of my Youtube watches is That Bloke on a Motorbike. I was disgusted to discover the other day that the scum of the earth sub humans stole his beloved RE Classic 350 Reborn the other night. He had it secured with a ground anchor and two chains. Not sure what quality the chains were. Nothing is sacred. These people should be nailed to a cross and left to die. The police will usually not even turn out for a motorcycle theft so this allows the parasites to act with impunity, knowing nothing will happen. Our legal system requires that we leave punishment to the authorities, but if they do nothing, they have no authority and I think that contract is broken. It is time for some Wild West Justice. It is either that, or we just accept that the worst people in society are entitled to do what they like to the rest of us. The police have largely abandoned their previous role in detecting and prosecuting crimes like fraud, burglary, shop lifting, vehicle theft and damage. They are hot on dealing with armed crime and murder = oh and trivial stuff like not taxing your car, or offending people on the Internet.
