Also loads of deliberately-installed glass on the 'summer' path by Bardney. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12627#post-149663 Sun, 20 Apr 2014 12:48:18 +0000 Rosie 149663@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I was on the Boston to Lincoln cycle path and there were quirky stands shaped like bicycles, along with some industrial waste art, of cows shaped from old chains. You can scroll down here and see one.</p> <p><a href="http://rosiebell.typepad.com/rosiebell/2011/05/prevailing-winds.html" rel="nofollow">http://rosiebell.typepad.com/rosiebell/2011/05/prevailing-winds.html</a></p> <p>There'd be a lot of scope for ornamental bike stands. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12627#post-149660 Sun, 20 Apr 2014 12:42:26 +0000 Rosie 149660@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I thought you could get more ornamental ones. In fact in some places like outside the art gallery they should have more ornamental ones, just like they have Victorian looking lamp stands. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12627#post-149659 Sun, 20 Apr 2014 12:35:02 +0000 chdot 149659@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Interesting idea. </p> <p>Would need to be a bit more than a standard Sheffield rack(?) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12627#post-149657 Sun, 20 Apr 2014 12:31:51 +0000 Rosie 149657@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Walking through Princes Street where there are all those memorial seats In Loving Memory to XY, it occurred to me that people could put up memorial bike stands. I'd certainly like my family to do that after my death. How would you go about that? </p>
