Rae, is there safe parking at the first hotel? I could only see a nearby Multi - Storey car park on their website.

https://www.asgardsss.co.uk/motorcycle-theft-statisticsFrom the BikerRated site, the West Midlands has 8% of all motorcycle thefts.
Of that 8% Shropshire accounted for 5.7%, i.e. 0.08 * 0.057 = 0.4% of all motorbike thefts in the UK.
From the Agard site, 80% are stolen from the owners address, so that leaves 20% being stolen from the street, which brings the 0.4% down to 0.08%.
Approx 40k motorbikes are stolen per anum in the UK, so I make 0.08% of 40k:
- 32 motorbikes stolen in Shropshire per annum
80% of bikes stolen are Japanese, so 20% of 32 is:
- 6.4 non-Japanese bikes stolen per annum in Shropshire
Finally, Shrewsbury represents about 25% of the Shropshire population (71,715 out of 306,000), so we're down to:
- 1.6 non-Japanese bikes stolen per annum in Shrewsbury
It'll probably be mine.
What we need is a sacrificial Panigale.
