Bike security in Bristol is reaching new levels.

A bicycle attached to a Sheffield stand with a U-lock. It is guarded by an entire swarm of cute honey bees, hanging from its handlebars.

@talkie_tim Wow, I hope the owner of that bike wears gloves when he rides!

Remember gang: Every time a bike is stolen a fairy dies.

Dated photo of part of a broken bike still tied to a bike stand. In the foreground, a stencil reads "Every time a bike is stolen a fairy dies" in a neat, serif font.

The swarm, their natural way of reproducing. The bees must find new accommodation within three days. After that, the honey supply they brought with them in their honey sacs is used up. Natural habitats for bees are becoming increasingly scarce. Old trees with woodpecker holes have become rare. So, the bike had to do.
