Bit of a long shot, but I'm driving to London to begin London to Paris in July. Anyone got a parking spot I can leave a car at for a few days? Coming back on the Eurostar so somewhere reasonably safe and close to St Pancras would be bang on useful.

    Hi HM, you've been quiet lately, I wondered where you'd gone.

    Hey Joe, trouble is, I don't have an office job anymore so spend less time idling online! Got out of the habit a bit as well. Still pootling around on the bike though. Enjoyed the weather on the tour de pembs the other week. You good?

    Yeah, still going strong though not done much cycling this year through one thing and another. My job takes me down to St Davids quite a bit now.

    Where is your L2P ride starting?

    Many of the organised rides start over near Kingston or Hamption as parking is so limited in town.

    If you don't want to go South West after Eurostar then your best bet is to look North but you'll have to get past Camden/Holloway before you get any safe/free street parking.

    Have a look at the Friends of London Zoo scheme if you are not parking during school holidays as they have a car park in Regents Park. Free to friends at certain times.

    Thanks for info. We're just a bunch of mates doing the ride so we're going to start at a central London landmark like Trafalgar Square I think. Coming down the night before and staying with friends (who don't have parking space) so probably be dropping the car the evening before we go I think.
