Lakeland do not allow folded folding bikes in. They have trollies which are much bigger. I no longer shop there.

Put the bike in the trolley and push it around with you ^_^

Do Halfords let bikes in their shops? What about anything that isnt complete crap?
Yes no problem in Bangor, N Wales left it downstairs by the till with the assistant and went upstairs to the bike section.
Tesco, leave it by the security scanning station (ask first, no problem)
Waitrose in Menai Bridge, " you are not bringing that in here"

I once got 'chased' around Sainsburys at Fosse park by an overweight 'security' guard when I went in to buy a bottle of single malt on my way home from work He couldn't keep up with me and eventually caught me up at the till to tell me "you can't bring bikes in ere" "fine" I replied "I'll just pay for this and go" :becool:
I'd bet it was the most exercise he'd had for a while.:giggle:

We used to have a little asda and they never objected to me taking the bike in, but they've moved 3 doors down to new, bigger premises and no longer allow it.
I told the security guard if theyd bothered to provide cycle parking I'd gladly use it.

Never thought of this.
If I go to asda on a bike I use the hybrid or mtb (in case of theft) and lock it to a post in the foyer.
I'll try this next time :biggrin:
 
My local halfords has appalling bike racks outside. It's like they don't have any cycling customers.
Sainsburries try really hard at bike parking and spend the money, but always get it wrong. The made a lovely weather shelter and filled it with wheel bender style racks. Even the sheffield-style racks were sabotaged by inserting a different style of rack into the gap between stands (ie where the bikes should go).
Morrisons is the winner of bike parking challenge: Sheffield stands, widely spaced for shopping loads, under cover, next to main door. How hard is that ?
