Do you ride to work or school/uni?
Yes
What type of bicycle do you ride (please state all if more than one)?
Fixed gear, Brompton, road bike, heavy roadster
Do you think there is a lack of facilities for parking bicycle in workplace or at school/uni?
Not at my last 4 jobs. However the one before that was a uni and yes, bike parking facilities were crap.
Do you think parking bicycles(with lock) outdoor is save?
No.
Have you had any experience of bike theft (whole bike or partly)?
Yes. I have had a locked bike stolen from outside my flat and one burgled from inside the building.
6.If you had a choice, would you park your bicycle indoor or outdoor?
Indoors.
7.Do you think bicycles can fit into an indoor environment?
Yes, if it designed with them in mind.
8.If you saw a bicycle in your office or classroom, would you think its an eyesore?
Yes, it's an office. Bikes get in the way, unless they are folded Bromptons (and even then...).
Most bikes seem to be massive hybrids and look crap, they are eyesores even in the bike park.
No. And I'm guessing there is for you and you have been told off for putting your bike in front of it.
