cycle racks

I may have misread the article but were the new cycle racks at the top of Bridge St and Rother St £531 each.
The standard upturned U Sheffield type recommended by Sustrans are £50 galvanised and £105 stainless for bolt down types so a added lump of shaped concrete is £481 to £426.
No I must have had a bad dream.
Try them out as I did and marvel at the technology.
May I suggest if they have to be movable that next time we buy a toast rack type that can accomodate two bikes upwards and is easily moved when required.

They look awful..Quite frankly if this is the start of the pi$%$ng away of money on so called "World Class Stratford" we all know where its going to end..No doubt in 20 years the new arrivals on the latest housing estate to be built in Stratford will be asking how the locals allowed it all to happen!
