Heading down to CTICC this afternoon for an office/business function. Call parking management and ask about secure bicycle parking.

 

Me: “I don’t usually park in public areas and therefore don’t carry a bike lock but do you have secure parking for bikes perhaps?”

 

Parking assistant: “no worries sir, we have very secure parking for bikes on parking level three with CCTV cameras covering the bikes and security guards patrolling all the time so you will not have to worry sir, even without a lock”.

 

Me: ”Ok cheers for the info, bye”.

 

I end the call and my immediate spontaneous thoughts: “Hell no. We all know how that usually pans out, I'll take a slow walk thanks..”

Westin Hotel has bikes outside next to porters desk,just across from Cticc,asķ them to look after bike

 

 Make friends with the guards and get them to handcuff your bike to a railing there. I will never leave even a cheap commuter unlocked anywhere.
