The introduction of the congestion charge has seen a big increase in the use of motorbikes in London. The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is making on-street secure motorcycle parking available to residents - see http://www.rbkc.gov.uk/EnvironmentalServices/parking/motorcycles.asp . The one shown, about to come into use, is in St Anne's Villas, just by Royal Crescent. Each of the six street-level studs has a hinged D-ring to take a chain locking the motorbike.
