I saw the new one from the M6 on Sunday ... so for me - it will be easier to get to.

The older I get, the faster I used to be ...
A new one just opened in Reading too. Neither of them very close to me but quite handy given they are just off the motorway/s, (much more so than Merry Hill was - what a PITA it was to get to) so can call in if visiting London, (or the North). But WHEN are we going to get one serving the South West/South Wales?

I have just been a ride passed the new one.
They have bike parking right by the main entrance, it has a cover but still a little exposed to the elements.
I havent seen one like this before, but in all fairness I havent been looking. You have to lift the front of the bike up and put the handlebars in some arms that are about 3 foot high, so the bike is at a 45 degree angle. Each set of arms has a thick wire plastic coated cable that looks long enough to reach to the back of your bike, so with your own lock you should be able to secure the front wheel, frame and rear wheel. Much better than the stump you can pull out at mery hill!
The store itself looks to be 3 or 4 times what I remember merry hill being, hope they have a large cycle department.
