I'd love a cargo bike but I have no where safe to keep something that big. I live in a flat which does have its own bike shed, but it's only long enough for a regular bike. There's no chance I'm leaving an expensive bike chained up outside overnight.

A minivan/car/etc is much less likely to get stolen. I suppose I could buy a van as a portable shed to keep my bikes in...

You may find it difficult to insure if you keep it in the van
