We live in a rural area, and up to now our driveway has been minimal. It's sort of a rough track from the road to where the car's parked. We keep the bikes in a canvas shed/tent near the house. It is a very low crime area and I'm not particularly concerned about theft risk for now as none of our arrangements are visible from the road.
However, we are soon upgrading our drive, and putting in a concrete pad for the car. It will have a roof and a retaining wall, but will not be fully enclosed. I was considering leaving the bikes out in that area, and using the shed for other stuff. If we did that, though, I'd want to lock them to discourage chancers. Since the concrete is still to be poured I was thinking rings set in the concrete would be the most secure, and simplest, and we could use our usual locks.
Are there other (better) solutions we should look at?
