Secure bike parking Aldgate/Aldgate High St?

condorman

I'd posted this in Commuting General so thought I'd post it here to see if I got a better response from Commuting Chat. Grateful for any replies.

Does anyone know anywhere in the Aldgate/Aldgate High St area that offers secure bike parking? I've just discovered that my new employers don't have anywhere and suggested a bike rack in the street. Not sure my bike would last too long! I'm happy to join a gym or anywhere else and pay for the privilege.

Any suggestions?

Try one of the City of London car parks, they have bike parking for free, and is in a staffed carpark, so safer than just in the street.

You might have come up with the best solution as the Minories car park is close to Virgin Active Tower Bridge which is close to Aldgate High Street. Whilst not ideal it may be prove to be the best solution. I shall have a gander tomorrow and suspect I owe you a beer!

Just a thought but there's a large manned private car park junction Aldgate Hi St/Commercial St. It may be that you could park it securely there and they'd look out for you.
