At parkway its over a weekend, which can inconvenience people who leave crap bikes that wont get stolen there over the weekend. <BR/><BR/>I think we ought to consider what to do about abandoned bikes round the city, as they don't benefit anyone. Better to move them, hold them and turn them over to the people in Easton who fix up bikes.SteveLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07654931341335136008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803191245171285795.post-77492488802744311652009-02-27T08:42:00.000+00:002009-02-27T08:42:00.000+00:00Has anyone thought that it is not just students th...Has anyone thought that it is not just students that use those hoops? What is the legality of someone just removing a bike that has been there a while? Would that not also be theft? What if the student is working abroad, come back and there bike is gone? Surely they would just report it stolen, I don't think bikes should be removed unless adequate notice is given, which I believe is what happens now?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803191245171285795.post-34460627136769917492008-12-25T00:51:00.000+00:002008-12-25T00:51:00.000+00:00I work at the University and some students leave t...I work at the University and some students leave their bikes locked to the racks for months on end. Security services eventually stick a note on it saying it will be forcibly removed, but often the wannabee thiefs have got their first. The trashed bikes in your photos may have been dumped by students who couldnt be bothered to take them home at the end of their course.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803191245171285795.post-72405904936803001972008-12-08T13:13:00.000+00:002008-12-08T13:13:00.000+00:00Surprisingly not.

The pool is worth a visit. <BR/><BR/>Uni staff parking isn't free, but they have turned every bit of front garden in converted housing over to it. But staff get to pay, which is not the case for say, most of us who work up in the North Fringe.SteveLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07654931341335136008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803191245171285795.post-15561869667585437952008-12-07T14:56:00.000+00:002008-12-07T14:56:00.000+00:00Nice to see it's nothing but the best for top draw...Nice to see it's nothing but the best for top drawer Bristol University students.<BR/><BR/>I'm guessing the Uni car park is a different story though?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
