    Hi -

    do you mean some sort of proper secure parking, or are you just looking for locations of sheffield stands etc?

    The carpark of Selfridges is a bit of a gem. Covered, cameras, guards, and free to all comers. Just access it from Edwardes Mews, at the rear of the store, and cycle up the ramp to the 1st floor.

    It's the only place I'd consider, if I didn't have parking at work.

    I know of a few quiet places outdoors in that area, but I'm afraid if I announce their locations on a public forum my bike would get stolen next time...

    Good tip and ditto re: the bike parking at work.

  • Thanks for the great tips and advice from everyone and I completely understand artaxerxes' point about giving away this info on safe places to park so feel free to send me a private message with the info (please!)

    thanks all...
