LCAG

Leeds Cycle Point have generously decided that LCAG members can store a bicycle for free during the daytime (it is £1 a day for non-members).

This is an excellent opportunity to spend a short time or indeed a full day in Leeds city centre confident that your bike will be secure.

Whether arriving by train or cycling there, just show your card to the staff to arrange free storage.

Opening hours of 7.00 a.m. to 7.00 p.m. Monday to Friday (10-6 weekends, 9-5 BHs). A shop with repair facilities run by Evans Cycles, is conveniently located near the railway station. See www.cyclepoint.org for further details.

Note how easy it is join LCAG, membership is only £7 per year! Just click on the link shown on the right.

We have a guest speak at the next Committee Meeting, I’m sure many will know Frank Montgomery from Leeds Institute of Transport. He is invited to tell us about a conference attended on behalf of LCAG.

Here are some links about that event, and a list of the outcomes.
