Urgent - Safe parking place in London

[Fallout]

Could squeeze another bike in my garage temporarily if necessary mate. Drop off / pick up from Basingstoke. It would be a pain in the **** though, so not a long term solution. Best solution is to move out of that crime ridden cattle market hell hole you live in.

Thanks for the offer Si, I'll keep it in mind. Would probably save me money the number of times I've ended up at Loomies with you lot

Hi mate, may be worth having a google for car park space rental.

Not sure how well London will be covered due to the general lack of parking but down my way there are a few sites where people rent out their drive ways and garages for workers so you may get lucky and find someone who rents for non work times.

Hope you can sort something as it would be pants to lose a biker just because of parking!

Just contact Ealing council they will have garages, thats all I did with Richmond I'm sure they will sort you out.

Well that phone call has done nothing to improve my opinion of Public Sector employees.

I don't have a garage, but if you want to leave it next to mine in Sutton there is enough space and it's quite safe

Oh how I'd love to. I don't really do mornings though, and having to commute for over an hour would kill me!

i got room in the garage if you need to store a bike for abit, although im in Caterham which is the opposite side of london to you, you can get a train straight into victoria or london bridge

Thanks for the offers guys. It's still in my friends garage nearby but I think I'll have to get it out of there in a few days.

I'm trying to find a permanent indoor area for it. There are some bike sheds out the back which I think the motorbike would squeeze in (possibly with the help of one of those rolling dollies). I've been trying to figure out who owns them, my land-lady doesn't seem sure, thinks they are the councils, but they are individually numbered matching the flats and the council haven't said anything with enough conviction for me to believe them (one said he didn't know anything about them and another said the council won't rent them but that they should be on the deeds).

I even bought a copy of the deeds to the flat but they aren't particularly helpful. The only thing which gives me some hope is the phrase "Note: Only the first floor flat and stores are included in the title." There is a store just outside the door but I'm not sure why that would be in plural if it didn't include another one. If anyone happens to know about this stuff then I'd be really glad to hear any advice!

I've put myself on the waiting list for Ealing and Richmond councils garages. Richmond were quite helpful but the chav at Ealing council didn't even make it sound like he'd bothered taking my details.

Considering posting some kind of note on LondonBikers. I can't pay £120 a month to rent a garage privately but would be willing to half that with another biker. Don't mind if I have to travel a mile or two to get it out as its mostly used on weekends.
