    Yes. There's car parking in the basement of the Barbican and City of London car parks are free for bikes.

    Mein Vader


    Check out this (not particularly brilliant) map. Click on the right "Driving in zerr city" and tick "motorcycle bays" and there you have it...loads of em!

    " + theTitle + "

    A tip, get there as early as you can, and be prepared to shuffle crappy old scooters along to get your bike in.

    ALL City bike bays fill up quick!

    Leave the bike and use the buses.
    They do not allow germans to drive tanks though the city.
