The force is also recommending bike owners:

• Fit a good bike lock and attach your bike to something secure
• Always lock your bike, even if you are only leaving it for a couple of minutes
• Keep your bike in a secure garage/shed
• If you have quick-release wheels, lock them or take them with you
• Remove lights and take them with you.
