Where are our stands?

Richard Wyatt

I had a real job trying to unlock my bike this morning from the only bike stands still remaining around the BathAbbey side of the Guildhall.

Our wonderful ‘cycling city’ isn’t so bike-friendly at the moment.

Racks were removed for the Remembrance Parade quickly enough, but they are not being put back with the same pace and gusto.

The stand l was on was – as you can imagine – a little crowded.

Meanwhile, other bike stands nearby have been replaced with Christmas Market sheds!

Come on B&NES. Are bikes welcome or not?
