Buy a D-Lock and Protect Your Bike! - Transition St Andrews

Fife Community Police has reported that two bikes a week are being stolen from St Andrews at present!

Community Police Officer Larna Fox Cowan is urging students to lock up their bike, as well as continue to use your lights and wear bright clothing. She joined Transition again this month outside the Students Association in a Bike Light event to draw attention to the fact that it is not only dangerous but illegal to ride without lights.
