Short-term bike storage in Amsterdam

Hi all, we're bringing our own bikes to tour Netherlands, with a two-three day stopover in Amsterdam. Does anyone know of any places where we can put the bikes in locked storage? I heard the bike theft rates there are through the roof, and figured it would be worth it to just keep them in one safe place, then pick them up when we leave the city again. Thanks!

I know of 3 bike lockups you could try. There is a large bike lockup right at Central Station. There is also one located right near Leidseplein (Next door to the Paradiso club) and there is also one more right next door to a dodgy tourist Torture Museum. Which is near the Flower market but im not sure the name of the street though. Id try the one at central station first and if they cant help they should have another idea.
