COMMENT:
Perhaps London could follow Glasgow's lead, and erect bicycle shelters
on the road. One per bicycle lane should significantly help the storage
'problem' as well as choking traffic even further.. It should also have
the benefit of reducing the body-odour that cyclists suffer from.
Although London preceded the bicycle by a couple of thousand years, that
is no reason why the metropolis shouldn't be completely remodelled, to
boost the political fortunes of its Mayor.

A coalition of clean air organisations, led by Clean Cities Campaign, is
calling on Londoners to share images of the awkward places they have to
store their bikes.

Photos shared so far have shown cyclists storing their bikes in
bathtubs, next to toilets and in cramped hallways.

“By not delivering the secure bike parking we need, London’s councillors
are failing residents who want to do the right thing and neglecting
their duties to reduce air pollution, tackle the climate crisis and help
prevent the 400 bike thefts that occur every week.”

They don't "have" to store fairy-cycles anywhere.

They don't "have" to have them at all. It's voluntary.

Store you private property on your own premises.

I do. So can you.
