Wall lock ..

I'm looking at storing my bicycle in a shared, secure underground car park
at a new flat. I'm considering some sort of wall mount that I can use my
Kryptonite New Yorl lock with.

Any suggestions?

What about a ground anchor instead?

Good idea.
Use a big f*** off chain too.

I have the chopped D-Lock to prove it.
I also found a 3-foot long set of boltcutters in out bin store,
ready for later use. Criminals gain entrance all innocent, open bin store,
set about their thievery.

Sure, I'll run a risk. However this is a private underground 'secure'
parking for about 20 flats, not an NCP. There already is 1 cycle loosely
locked up, so hopefully by locking securely mine will be last one to get
nicked. A New York lock is tough as nails, no?

I've also got another place which is an outside storage area. Basically
a purpose built storage shed, but it'd take longer to get my bike out.
And I think it's just as insecure (mainly as the scum could climb over
the wall and into the garden where these brick sheds are).

Pop round to your local motorbike shop and look at ground and wall
anchors plus much bigger chains than you would be prepared to carry on a
bicycle.
